We have this freaky weather going on that is absolutely insane. Yeah, I agree, Being warm is nice. IN THE WINTER ! ! ! ! !
But don't freakin' cook me ! ! ! ! !
As stated before I work in a store that has A/C. Not cool enough for me. I get there and start to work and melt all at the same time. I just can't handle the heat. Its just not right that when you go outside you have to make sure you have an inhaler with you.
Tomorrow, they say it will feel like 117 degrees FAHRENHEIT. That's more than half way to boiling. Its just a few degrees over, but its still closer to boiling than not. Oh, and for you Celsius people, its going to feel like 47.
So how come its just as hot in both scales. Boiling point of water is 212 F or 100C. Yet in F we are more than 50% closer to boiling than you are in C. Shouldn't my temperatures have gone down if the metric system has me less than half way to the boiling point???
Somehow it doesn't make me feel any cooler.

I still think the world has gone to hell since they switched to the metric system.
- No one knows what they are paying for a gallon of gas anymore. Or how many MPG's they are getting. Since they went metric, everything has been screwed up.
- The weather has gotten worse
- The manufacturers are giving us less product for the same money and then increasing the price after several months, figuring we won't realize its a DOUBLE increase in price.
I remember the advertising saying that it would be easier to figure the prices because (the example used was toothpaste) if you saw 100 mls for 99 cents and 300 mls for $2.49 you could figure the price out easier and buy the better value.
All well and good.
Except that the manufacturers are NOT universal in their own product lines, let alone between competitors. How can you compare when one company quotes you .79 cents per 100 ml and someone else has the same type of product quoted in kilos? Mls are quantity, kilos are weight.
And what's with fabric softener saying it does 77 loads and then, even from the same manufacturer, the next size up will be 90 loads and size down will be 48 loads.
WTF ! ! ! ! !
The End
for now.
