As the price of gas rises, the time to recoup your costs is shortened.

Ugh....rode my bike this morning, when it was a very pleasant 72 degrees. Current temperature: 97.

Count your blessings - current temp where I am: 112.  Will be hotter yet in an hour or so when I pedal home.

Of course, they also say here that "'It's a 'dry heat'" - like that really makes it better... 

I should by stock in Powerade...

Ah yes, the old "dry heat" argument. We use it here too. I've decided that I don't like the term at all. Hot is hot - I wouldn't want to be where you are regardless of how dry it is!

Inside of your oven is also a dry heat.

Fortunately for me, the Great Northwet can be 40s to 50s in the morning. Makes a 5 AM ride quite nice.

Headline in one of the Seattle rags 2 weeks ago indicated it was actually colder in Seattle than Siberia.

Yes, it is, and I would not want to be inside my oven either!
