My wife has turned on a space heater inside when the temperature outside was over 100 degrees. I can't make this stuff up.

It's probably because I'm a damned Yankee. I never even had AC until I moved down here.

An excellent point, Tim, since he's a Rat Bastard DM, he clearly already has no heart: I'm beginning to wonder if he's a mi-go, myself :wink:

Wait a minutre; what's this Rat-bastard stuff?
I have a heart; it just doesn't work like it is supposed to.
Good thing you're not signed up for one of my (DM) games.

I was referring to Jon, not you, and I should be in one of your games IIRC (Saturday night?).

Come, my children, come. Don't be afraid. That? Oh, that's my friend Mr. Ogre, he's ever so anxious to taste--er--meet-- you....

The police station is right behind his house so you shouldnt worry about that. What you do need to worry about is getting hit by a car. Lots of crazy drivers in Mike's neighborhood.

I should probably make Invincible Overlord aware that the air conditioning in the room will be turned as far to the "cold" setting as it will go. Hopefully with all the moisture in the air I can get it to snow in my room.

Other people's AC is fine with me PDT_Armataz_01_37

The weather in Chicago right now is low 60's high and high 40's for lows. Just the perfect weather to keep the furnace turned off, and the AC not turned on yet. My energy bills this summer should be at an all-time low.

I'll just bring a pair of sweat pants and a long t-shirt...

THANKS!

That is VERY helpful.

And... Just for advanced informational purposes, I plan to carry a hydraulic jack in my PCs backpack/knapsack. :lol:
