My only consolation over the extreme heat we've had the past few weeks (and are going to have for at least next week, frickin' wahoo) is that all the Faux Noise fans who said that "global warming" was obviously a myth because it actually still snows in the winter aren't saying jack right now.

I'm a little worried about my own situation, actually -- my A/C is too efficient. I've got it set to about 73° in the house, but it keeps running and chills the place down to the low 60s. I've just got this vibe that something expensive is about to go. Or maybe I simply need a new thermostat. Meantime, I'll run it for a few hours, then shut it off, then run it again. Seems to be balancing nicely when I do that.

Here are some ways to beat the heat. Please take care of yourselves, your kids, your pets, your older friends and relatives, and let's all frickin' stay healthy. This too shall pass... but maybe not for another week or two.

How are you beating the heat?
