Quit bitchin' about how hot Paris is in the Summer!
Just thought I should note, for our European Fodorites, that it reached 125 degrees Fahrenheit today in Baker California. That's 51.6 degrees Centigrade!!!!
A useful factoid for the next American who bitches about how hot it is in your town.

I live in North Texas, and it's usually triple digits here in July, but we haven't hit 100 all summer and it's been a couple of weeks since we've even hit 90. Not the first time I can remember a cool, wet summer, but a real rarity.

We're floating down the streets here in Dallas. A few months ago all area lakes were 10'-20' below normal, now all are at least 10' above and some as much as 30' above normal. Amazing change in such a short period of time.

YOu probably shouldn't use that slang word, as it can be offensive to some people, like me -- especially as a heading for a post which is very unnecessary and you have to repeat it at the end. It's really rather vulgar to feel you have to talk that way.

I won't bitch, coz its oh-so offensive. (You've never been offensive, you are allowed.)
But by-gosh-by-golly...that's hot.
I'm sorry that you probably have to hole-up in air conditioning, like we in the east, sometimes hole-up because of snow!

My most humble and abject apologies to Christina, and any other easily offended Fodorites, whom I may have shocked by my intemperate language!
Please substitute the word "gripe", or "complain" for the term I originally used. I do hope my use of slang on this august Forum will not end civilization as we know it.
