Greetings From Texas! (It’s Hot As Hell!)
The other day some TV reporter called, she was going to do a story on people seriously burning their bare feet on the sidewalk. Sounds like a stupid story, but you have to admit it’s pretty damned hot here in Texas. Every day they give some heat index reading, supposedly to tell you what it “feels like” outside, and it’s around 110 or so degrees.
When it gets this hot, you know what we do in Texas? We strip off all our clothes, fire up the barbecue, and jump in some water. And we drink us some beer – Lone Star, of course. Well, almost. But we do listen to this kind of music:
