Anyone else feeling the heat?

According to a news report I watched the other day, this is like the second hottest summer in recorded history. It really sucks because all I want to do on my one day off in the week is go outside and take some pictures, but I can't because it's so miserably hot outside =( Anyway was just curious if anyone else was feeling the same effects as me here in the midwest. A cooldown period would be pretty nice but forecasts say otherwise. In the meantime I just continue to admire all the photos posted here until I can contribute something again, whenever it may be.

I live in Phoenix and haven't really had the motovation to get out there in the 100+ temps to take pictures. __________________ The United States will conquer Terrorism with the help of God and a few Marines. Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

And the triple digit heat really de-motivates from going outside and doing anything. Guess there is always this fall haha...

There's a difference between a desert heat of 100+ and midwestern 100+. I've lived through both. When the dew point is higher than it is at the equator, your pants are crock pots to twist a Robin Williams phrase from Good Morning Vietnam.

Is for constructive criticism (will even settle for destructive) just anything but "Nice shot" or "Awesome".

Of course every august is like that is GA. 90's would not be so bad if not for this humidity. __________________ "Better to fight for something than live for nothing." -- George S.

Offline --> Posts: 1,162 --> Join Date: Apr 2005	I just got me a Captain America and Bucky set of figures that I want to pose outside with the 1/18th scale WWII tanks and dudes. It is supposed to be better tommarow and was great today except it rained up until I had to leave for work and then stopped the rest of the day. __________________ "Better to fight for something than live for nothing." -- George S.
