Heat Takes A Toll - People In The South Continue On
"You notice every year, even though our area gets temperatures into the 100s, we only see a few people seriously affected by the heat. But if a heatwave went through a place like Chicago, you might get a dozen or more deaths."

I would like to say a big thanks to all the workers that have no choice but to work out of doors this time of year! I do NOT know how they can possilbly sustain the heat! And yes even though those streets under construction are a pain they will be road ready sooner due to those poor heat exhausted laborers! It is appreciated!
Now I don't have sympathy for people who CHOOSE to jog at noon...they are insane!!!!!!!! Drink lots of water!

I agree about the school busses-I've heard Rush call it "the Feminization of america"
As far as Working in the heat, I spend about $20.00/day on gatorade! |
