It’s just been ridiculously hot in the Atlanta area lately. Dawg daze indeed.
Today’s paper featured a few comments related to the weather, with a couple of my own added.
It was soooo hot that…
all the cows were giving evaporated milk.
the farmers fed the chicken chipped ice so they wouldn’t lay boiled eggs.
my outdoor thermometer was banging on the door to get inside.
I saw a dog chasing a cat and they were both walking.
I saw two fire hydrants fighting over a dog.
hot water comes out of both tap handles.
my fried green tomatoes are still on the vine.
my neighbor climbed into his hot tub to cool off.
I went to a sushi bar and all they had was fried fish.
my thermometer had to go back to college and get another degree.
the Baptists were sprinkling, the Methodists were using a “Handy Wipe,” and the Presbyterians were not even trying.
Got any to add?

It was so hot here …. and so dry …. that I saw a guy passed passed out on the street, and I had to throw a bucket of dust in his face to revive him.

My A/C broke down over the weekend and it was so hot in the house that Peg had to put the cake batter in the refrigerator to bake it!
