Arizona HOT????

[Buddy]

Just moved to Arizona! Now this is a state that knows how to live!!
Beautiful sunny days and warm balmy evenings. What a place! It is beautiful. I've finally found my home. I love it here.
June 14th:
Really heating up. Got to 100 today. Not a problem. Live in an air-conditioned home, drive an air-conditioned car. What a pleasure to see the sun everyday like this. I'm turning into a sun worshipper.
June 30th:
Had the backyard landscaped with western plants today. Lots of cactus and rocks. What a breeze to maintain. No more mowing lawn for me. Another scorcher today, but I love it here.
July 10th:
The temperature hasn't been below 100 all week. How do people get used to this kind of heat? At least, it's kind of windy though. But getting used to the heat is taking longer than I expected.
July 15th:
Fell asleep by the community pool. (Got 3rd degree burns over 60% of my body). Missed 3 days of work. What a dumb thing to do. I learned my lesson though. Got to respect the ol' sun in a climate like this.
July 20th:
I missed Lomita (my cat) sneaking into the car when I left this morning. By the time I got to the hot car at noon, Lomita had died and swollen up to the size of a shopping bag, then popped like a water balloon. The car now smells like Kibbles and ****s. I learned my lesson though. No more pets in this heat. Good ol' Mr. Sun strikes again.
July 25th:
The wind sucks. It feels like a giant freaking blow dryer!! And it's hot as hell. The home air-conditioner is on the fritz and the AC repairman charged $200 just to drive by and tell me he needed to order
parts.
July 30th:
Been sleeping outside on the patio for 3 nights now, $225,000 house and I can't even go inside. Lomita is the lucky one. Why did I ever come here?
Aug. 4th:
It's 115 degrees. Finally got the air-conditioner fixed today. It cost $500 and gets the temperature down to 85. I hate this stupid state.
Aug. 8th:
If another wise *** cracks, 'Hot enough for you today?' I'm going to strangle him. Damn heat. By the time I get to work, the radiator is boiling over, my clothes are soaking wet, and I smell like baked cat!!
Aug. 9th:
Tried to run some errands after work. Wore shorts, and when I sat on the seats in the car, I thought my *** was on fire. My skin melted to the seat. I lost 2 layers of flesh and all the hair on the back of my legs and *** . . . Now my car smells like burnt hair, fried ***, and baked cat.
Aug 10th:
The weather report might as well be a damn recording. Hot and sunny. Hot and sunny. Hot and sunny. It's been too hot to do **** for 2 damn months and the weatherman says it might really
warm up next week. Doesn't it ever rain in this damn desert? Water rationing will be next, so my $1700 worth of cactus will just dry up and blow over. Even the cactus can't live in this damn heat.
Aug. 14th:
Welcome to HELL! Temperature got to 115 today. Cactus are dead. Forgot to crack the window and blew the damn windshield out of the car. The installer came to fix it and said, "Hot enough for you today?"
My sister had to spend $1,500 to bail me out of jail. Freaking Arizona. What kind of a sick demented idiot would want to live here?? Will write later to let you know how the trial goes.

115,gosh that was a dry heat. I've seen it hit 122. That was funny as hell. Go to the lake it's cooler up there.:D :D :D

[blown dough]

Wow, he already knows the weather up until August 14th, but he just moved there?????????????????????????????????

[Devil's Advocate]

Got that joke sent to me in my email about a year ago. Pretty funny and true!

[Buddy]

Sorry, should have posted its just a joke;) My fiance and I did visit last month, We went to Vegas, Havasu And the Grand Canyon(Everywhere In between) Fell in love with Havasu. I cant wait to visit this summer and go boating!

[Xlration Marine]

Yup at least a year old, some chick posted it before. But it's still funny as hell, and true. I left Up State NY. in 86, it was snowing. Got off the plane out here and I thought I was going to die, it was only 98. That first year is a bitch and so are the ones that fallow it. It's all about the lake and mountains.

[shueman]

My fav of all time....thanks for reviving it :cool:

[Buddy]

The first story I heard like that was the one where the man moved his family to the great white north. When he saw snow for the first time, than 4 months into winter he couldnt stand the white sh@# anymore. The Az story killed me though because my freinds since I said I wanted to move out there have been saying the same thing about the desert!:D

[SummerBreeze]

Pussy

[Buddy]

Someones awake in Havasu?:D Kinda early

I understand, my teeth are already falling out, I have forgotten all I was taught in school, I find that I wear the same clothes (type and style) every day, Beer 30 is all day, I feel like committing a felony and I haven't shaved this year, yes I Love this state, I love the River Life. Yeah Right!
I am looking for a new house in the OC!
Ps. if some one will only buy my house in Havasu

[jbone]

Last year it hit 125 in Yuma. It wasn't too bad if you were waist deep in the water and had a Coors Light I.V. We had to throw in a Gatoraid every now and then.
My little 4 and 5 yr old girls didn't even notice.

How bad are the nights when it doesnt dip below 100?

[phebus]

The same as the nights that don't dip below 90, or 80 for that matter. AIR CONDITIONED :)

This will be my second full time summer here in Arizona. The Wx. is not unbearable, or even miserable. The nights are ok, you can always retire to the ac.
I spent most my time at my ranch, 50 miles from Parker, no river there.
The Parker house is 200 feet from the water, so I can jump in any time I am here. I am seriously considering going back to Yorba Linda, as there is no place like the OC!

[HammerDown]

Right >now< it's Sleeting (freezing Rain) in South Eastern Pa...
There's a dead frozen Cat stuck to a sidewalk...:D

You can keep your O.C. I can't stand to even go back for a weekend anymore.......
It is hot here but just about the time you get sick of it winter rolls through. It takes til your 2nd summer to acclimate to the heat but once you get used to it it's a breeze. I freeze now until it's 80degrees!:D
3 hrs from River, 3 hrs from glamis, 2 hrs from snow, great night life, we have all 3 major sports teams and I can carry my gun leagally here!

We were at the river that weekend too. We didn't really notice the 125 when we were on the water, but when it came time to wipe the boat down and get our place all cleaned and locked up it was absolutely unreal. I have never felt heat like that before. ridiculous. :sqeyes:
