I'm still running and mountain biking in this weather. Just have to stay hydrated.

Most of the dead were homeless. There's been a big outreach to make sure they're getting enough water.

To me, doesn't feel any hotter than it normally is at this time of year.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes, but didn't you also hump a heavy pack around in the desert for quite a while in the military?

I never knew the military asked soldiers to hump things.

And in my defense before everyone comes down:

1. That statement, despite what it sounds like, was correct... sorta.

2. I know Arizona is a desert also. But I'm willing to bet the other desert was hotter... right?

3. "Hump- To lug, carry" There are several military-esque terms that sound dirty, but aren't. Case in point: Penetration Bombs.

By a matter of mere seconds. A full minute hadn't even passed.

Oh, and you don't know... it could've been the other way around.

It was definitely hotter in the Middle East than it is here.

I used to work out in that heat before I became disabled.(No, not from the heat, just the assholes I worked for)
Nothing like the temps on the Sky Harbor tarmac!
We recorded 145 degrees out there one day from all the reflective heat and jet blast.. [img]eek.gif[/img]
They have to ground the planes when the official temp passes 118 degrees. Fun stuff. [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]
