• 866 weather was

    shots, all bets are off.
    I read "all hats are off." I could do
    maybe half an espresso shot before
    feeling the consequences, as in taking.
    the top of my head off.
    I'd have to line up four or five at this point, and maybe more.

    I'm sufferinging from lack of sleep (didn't
    get upgraded on my flight, and United subbed
    in an unpleasantly configured plane instead
    of the rather nicer one originally scheduled).
    I'll probably have a Coke, and that will do
    it for me; I'll be jittery and sleepy at the
    same time.

    broiling down under.
    Or more likely barbecuing, knowing Ozzies.
    Yeah, they don't call it broiling, but it's
    not really barbecuing either. I wish Glen
    were around to weigh in on this, but I think
    they tend to use the term grilling, but I'm
    not sure, American influences and all that.
    Right now however, parts of Australia are grilling people - temps in
    the 40s. Eep.

    Yeah - that's what I was referring to, and to
    my recollection, Mr. Jamieson has a couple small
    units in the bedrooms, but the kitchen, where most
    of the activity is, is going to be "too hot."

    In Sydney the weather is much like here,
    but Adelaide is forecast to reach the
    100F mark next Tuesday and Wednesday.
    It got there and made change. I've got friends down there who are
    getting cooked.

    Well, I just looked it up, and the temps are
    all over the place but mostly above average.

    Been there, done that, but it takes a heckuva lot more than one coke.
    I've always had a decent tolerance for stimulants.

    I'd have figured most Aussies would have Central by now. Meanwhile,
    here in CT we're about to head into the chest freezer for a while.

    Meanwhile I'm well below. I keep thinking they ought to shake CT
    weather up in a bag with theirs and we might both be better off.

    Is your freezer warmer than the temp outside? At the moment that is
    true for us. Freezer is set for 10F. Outside is 5F.

    At some points it was warmer in the freezer than outside. Today it hit
    60. Wacky, although my furnace and heat bill were happier.
