It's Hot In Here

* It 's been so Hot.....

All the corn started popping and flying through the air. The cows thought it was snowing, and they froze to death......... : (

The potatoes cook underground and all you have to do to have lunch is to pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper ......... WHEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying hard boiled eggs........... : )

The cows are giving evaporated milk.

The trees are whistlin' for the dogs.

Even the sun is looking for shade.

The birds had to pick up the worms with potholders.

I saw a dog chasing a cat and they were walkin'.

I saw a fire hydrant begging for a dog to pee on it

CAMPBELL SOUP CO. has changed the directions on its cans to, "just pour and eat".

Water in public swimmiing pools is evaporating so fast that the children are being encouraged to swim in the deep end and to ignore the, "no peeing" rule.

Even the careless weeds are dying....do you know how long it took me to grow those?
 
You no longer associate bridges (or rivers) with water.

You eat hot chilies to cool your mouth off.

You can make instant sun tea.

You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.

The temperature drops below 95, you feel a bit chilly.

You've experienced condensation on your butt from the hot water in the toilet bowl.

You would give anything to be able to splash cold water on your face.

You can attend any function wearing shorts and a tank top.

The 4 seasons are: tolerable, hot, really hot, and ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!!

You discover that in July, it takes only 2 fingers to drive your car.

You discover that you can get a sunburn through your car window. (Amanda)

You notice the best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.

It's noon in August, kids are on summer vacation, and not one person is out on the streets.

You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m. before work.

No one would dream of putting vinyl upholstery in a car or not having air conditioning. (Except maybe Mosie who would just ride a motorcycle)

Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.

 "I wish it would rain - not so much for me, cuz I've seen it -- but for all the children under the age of 6."

What To Do in the Heat

Whatever you decide to do.....DO NOT GO OUTSIDE!!!!!

Very appropriate!  I just found out that carbonation tingles in a bad way when a laugh forces it out of your nose.  Great way to start my day, Thanks!
