Incredible weather to sit outside and drink some beer last night. Maybe a little too nice as I'm regretting it a little bit this morning

Give me zero degrees over 100. All day, every day.
Not for me. I'll take 100 every time.
You can always add another layer to stay warm during cold days, but there’s only so many layers you can take off in an attempt to cool down.
I don't know, I feel like there has to be an upper limit to number of layers you can add too.
(Yes…someone please insert a picture of Ralphie’s brother outside in the movie “A Christmas Story”!)
My main criteria is that I can golf when it's 100, but I cannot when it's 0.I'm staying indoor for either one so really doesn't matter much
I suppose longevity wise, zero degrees would not be survivable and would end the human race. 100 degrees might be survivable.
For one day, or even a week, give me 0.

At least RAGBRAI is having a good week.
Not to mention my hands are usually the worst and I can't type on a keyboard with gloves on.
Also glad the Bix 7 race is this Saturday, next week could literally be a killer for a race like that. Looks like sub-80 for race time tomorrow, almost cold by Bix standards.
Great.
I spent a lot of time last night dragging water buckets and hoses and sprinklers around my vast shade gardens trying to keep things alive. Hot, windy and dry as a bone all month so I have a shade desert of drying plants. Not even bothering with the yard, it's pretty much dormant heading for dead. Last mowed 36 days ago. About half my big ferns are R.I.P., trying to save the remainder.
You can always drink more water. And eventually you will acclimate to the higher heat. I've never acclimated to air that is so cold that it is painful.
I remember a summer I was out in the heat so much I felt cool when it dropped below 90.
