So cold here, I plugged my 3750 back in to use as a space heater! Brr!

Bloody hot here. I have been going to the beach after work. Wednesday it was 33c (91F) when I went to bed about 9pm / 10pm.

It's a high of 40C (104F) again today, going to a friends house later for a dip in the pool, food and maybe a drink but I'm driving.
Sometimes I'll open the balcony door when it's not too hot outside to get fresh air, but if I'm gaming then the PC sounds like a fighter jet  :XD:

I'm not gloating, it will get to freezing water temp over night in around june (my birthday month) whereas back in UK, June 21st is the longest day and usually one of the warmest of the year. It has meant many years of getting home at 6 or 7am and the sun is blazing, or being out somewhere (festival / garden party) and it being 10pm and the sky is still a bit blue. We dont have daylight savings here where I am now, it's miserable in the winter and summer it is dark at 730 latest.

Speaking of hot in Australia, there's the opening of this great tune:



I do love me The Chats. :D

Ah yes, that would be a called a mullet. Still commonly seen today. Though tie die and pop-colours are a bit popular also so I think we're transitioning into the 90s-era. 

I'll translate for those that are confused - He's saying he's on his cigarette break so dont ask him to do anything.

They need either a singer or go instrumental.   jamming is great, singing, not so.

^ Yeah, I love that band, that was the first song of theirs that I heard.

As for singing, it's punk rock, so it's perfect.

The Ramones were punk rock, not The Chats.  that video above, the lead guitar is not punk, not even close.
the drums sound like they are on queue.

Not punk? They're very Dead Milkmen in their delivery.

In the mid 60s in the afternoon this last weekend. Actually sat on the back porch and enjoyed a drink yesterday while smoking some ribs.

My work PC connects to Northern VA, so I get all the weather info for that part of the world in the bottom right corner. If I forget it's not Texas, I start to think the next ice age is underway.

Nah, I like knowing how things are up in Tysons, VA. Makes for nice conversational awareness.
