Guess the heat is starting to get to me.

Turned on CBC's World at Six tonight after my afternoon nap and after 10 minutes of the war in Lebanon decided I'd heard enough. Lucky me, I can actually turn it off. For the people without water, electricity, and food who fear to even go outside their homes that possibility doesn't exist.

The heat outside my balcony window, however, is a reality my air conditioning unit is barely managing to hold back, my apartment isn't cooling down, just not getting any warmer. The temperature is billed as being 86º F but on my partially enclosed balcony with the slowly setting sun laying straight in it's closer to 100. I see that in Kansas the ambient temperature actually is 100. I don't want to think about that. We're in for a week of heat, smog, and humidity. And that moron in the White House still believes that the American Economy can't afford to do something about Global Warming. At least he's finally beginning to admit there might actually be such a thing as Global Warming.
