I can ignore him. I know what the heat and humidity feel like there. Frank is a puddle of sweat flopped in a chair by now. Once it hits 80 you are trying to breath water.


And the rain is light here - in NJ you get it all at once. I still remember the rainy day we decided to go to the mall. When we exited the Parkway we hit a flood on Route 1. That 6 inches in an hour had no where to go except right down the highway. That's how we know the Grand Cherokee could float....

We ate outside almost every day this week. Today I did not feel like cleaning the table after working in the yard all day, so Dan cooked a chicken on the spit and we ate in. Got a little sunburn yesterday but don't tell anyone.

You don't have to take that from a hillbilly. For instance, Seattle doesn't even rank in the top 25 major cities in the US as far as rainfall goes (it's 44th).

But don't expect a hillbilly to know that. Matter of fact it get less than New York City. You remember NY don't ya, Frank? Or has too much mountain dew burned out those brain cells from the past?

Here's a link if'n anyone still doubts:
