the temperature is: one hundred five degrees
That's what the time-and-temperature announcement told me when I called. Hellish conditions notwithstanding, we went to Gallery Night anyway. Rode the air-conditioned trolley around parts of downtown and historic districts, dropped into some favorite art galleries [not all of them air-conditioned], and then ended the evening sitting in the park, drinking wine, soaking up the breeze, watching the far-off lightning, and listening to the Pensacola Youth Steel Orchestra.

(Sounds real nice. Now to the links.)
yowphsyo: psycho? yowza!
Don't get excited. Don't you know all that global warming stuff is just made up by scientists trying to get rich off grant money?
Glad you were able to get out despite the heat. Here in Louisville a cold front has moved through and dropped the temperatures 20 or so degrees. However, it won’t last and the forecast is that we’ll return to HOT by Tuesday. Ugh!
get rich off of grant money!

[ok, i feel better now]
hey, nick! we had a brief cool spell not long ago, which was lovely but just makes it that much harder to cope when the heat comes back.
i'm pretty sure that whatever thermometer they use for that announcement gets the afternoon sun, or reflected heat from buildings and pavement, or something, because i doubt it was quite that hot.
still, it was warm-ish last night. thank goodness for the stiff breeze coming off the water. i don't see how you people who live inland survive.
these links are all much more pleasnat than the last batch, i promise.
It sounds like a wonderful evening, heat notwithstanding. Glad you had a good time. Thanks for the links; I look forward to exploring them in a few hours.
some of the art links are worth exploring, but the downtown and historic links aren't aren't all that great. i should have tried harder on those.
