It was hot in the summer of Spike Lee's film "Do The Right Thing".
Someone recently posted a picture of the winter with the caption "When We Complain About The Heat...", the implication being the grass is always greener in the other fellow's yard, but once you have jumped the fence and are over in that yard, there is a lot of dead grass, mud, and cow pies laying around... or Winter has its own discontents.
Autumn looks good to me. Winter looks OK, too.
Baysage says that the heat in Oklahoma has been over 100 degrees F for a long time. I believe it has been established that it is the driest since the Dust Bowl days. Weather records are dropping like flies in this, our new championship season.
Whether its Climate Change or not does not matter. Never did. Why is everything a matter of ideology to us? Stop thinking, stop speaking, and "Do The Right Thing", as Spike Lee pointed out years ago. He even turned that pithy phrase into a cinematic masterpiece to tease us into comprehension.
Pizzerias are burning everywhere!
Put out the fire!

It's worse this week . . . temp pushing into 104-108 range every day. I keep wondering about the power companies. They absolutely HAVE to hold out. You could easily die in heat like this without air conditioning. When I do venture out, I simply cannot stand the sight of lawn crews or other outside workers. Criminal that anybody should perform any kind of labor in this.
So much is dependent upon that out-dated electric grid.
Let's spend some money on repairing infrastructure!
