RSS Feeds: The Heat Is On!
We have had record heat for the past three days here in Olongapo City, Philippines. I don't even need to consult any weather statistics to know it. All I have to do is listen to the Filipinos in my neighborhood. If they're suffering, how much more do you think I'm suffering? I'm a white guy from the US who spent the last umpteen years living with air conditioning, at home and at work. I've been doing without air conditioning for many months now but this is the worst it has been. I feel like I'm stuck in a sauna without an off switch, even at night.
All this heat makes me envy the females who can get away with wearing thong bikinis (also commonly referred to as "butt floss"). Take a look:
And it's just going to get hotter! I just pulled this up. It's the forecast for this area, starting today:

Holy snapping butt cheeks batman! This post is the kindest on the optic nerve that I have read here RT.
I commiserate on the weather – we had a summer very similar but I wish we had the rain to go with it. If we have another summer without rain we will run out of drinking water. Not something I would have thought possible a few years ago in an Australian city with 1.5 million people.
I'll pray to the god of weather (we call him huey here for some reason)for a cool change for you.
Maybe it's not the temperature that's making you hot. Maybe it's just staring at the butt cheeks.
So why don't you have air conditioning? Isn't AC common in the PI? It was common in Thailand thirty years ago.
#1, I don't have any AC units and don't have the cash to buy any.
#2, I have other priorities right now on my fixed income.
RT I think I need to be where you are at buddy!! ;-)
To other people who visit this site (am not american). This weird heat wave is called "El Niño". It happens every year or few years. Now (2010) El Niño is causing problems to electricity production by drying up the dams which give us electricity and water. If you already know what El Niño is do not reply.
