As in, those who state "oh it's snowing in April, that means there's no global warming", you now currently have those who do the opposite with this heat wave.

That's what i get for trying to rush in a post during work lol.

News Flash -It's hot.

So glad to not be a mechanic anymore. It was days like this in a non-AC shop that helped push me back to school.

Of course I spent 30 minutes in my garage tonight sweatin me balls off.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

I think this is where to be. I was unaware of the temperature outside until I noticed my Facebook news feed "blowing up" (as you kids would say) with photos of friends' vehicles' 100% accurate thermometer displays. As my BMW's fine German thermometer appears to be accurate (with the occasional swing to -40F) I was tempted to join in the phenomenon and share with MY friends that indeed, it is warm today.

but I didn't.

I almost didn't make it from my air conditioned car, across the parking garage to my air conditioned cubicle.

However, at exactly this time last year my balls would be knocking against my knees and every inch of my shirt would be soaked through while I cleared brush or did some other grueling bitch work. And it'd only be 10 AM. And I couldn't even look forward to tomorrow cause I worked Saturdays.

Oh the things I don't miss.

The E34 just kind of wheezes semi-cool air at you. "Oh, you vant zis cool air ja? Nein, you cannot has."

It's fine below like...80. Which is also when it's fine to have the windows down. 81 degrees and the party's over.

Isn't that what the Ridgeline has? R12 was the older stuff, which the E34 has. It'll blow c-o-l-d if it's got a good charge and stuff, but I have no idea how well the system is working. The car also has some form of semi-automatic climate control, so half the time it does its own thing which is usually not quite what you want.
