Hot Texas Summers always remind me of this list. Enjoy and post some from your state.

·You no longer associate bridges with water.
·You can say 110 degrees without fainting.
·You learn that a seat belt makes a pretty good branding iron.
·The temperature drops below 95 and you feel a bit chilly.
·You discover that in July it takes only two fingers to drive your car.
·You discover that you can get a sunburn through your car window.
·You know the best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.
·You actually burn your hand opening the car door.
·No one would dream of putting vinyl upholstery in a car or not having air conditioning.
·You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m. before work.
·You realize asphalt has a liquid state.
·The mosquitoes have landing lights.
·You've taken your kids trick-or-treating when it was 90 degrees outside.
·When it rains, everyone is smiling.
·It's a common misconception that we have killer bees, fire ants, gigantic roaches and mosquitoes and other awful insects, tornadoes, hurricanes, and damaging hailstorms. We tend to think of them as a few bitty bugs and a bad hair day.
·It's a common misconception that everyone speaks with a Texas accent. Y'all just don't know what y'all are talkin' about.
 
Or how about this.....

You can actually SEE the heat coming off the pavement.

Get ready, here it comes! :p
 
Having lived in San Antonio, I know these are all true!

Unfortunately, it is true here in Raleigh, too! :(
 
I just love this place. Why live anywhere else?


Happy Thoughts to all,

Or how about:

By 3PM its too hot to go swimming since the water in the pool feels as hot as the air!

On the other hand, I'll take the 110 summers over the 10 winters any year::yes::
 
I know it's bad when I don't feel hot unless it is over 100!
Bring on the summer- I can handle it :D
