Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What's stupid is that I'm sitting here in the airconditioned office, obsessing about how hot it is outside.

Yeah, but even if I have lunch delivered today, I'm still going to have to leave at the end of the day to walk back to the subway. (Oh god, the subway. It's going to be a bazillion degrees worse down there...)

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

In the bay area - things will get very hot in some places - but more important, it is a spare the air day - which means , breathing is hard.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Stupid sun. Stupid nuclear fusion.

Yes, this. I keep thinking it might be a good night to go to a movie and hide out in the AC for a bit after work, but then I realize I'm going to have to actually get to someplace to see a movie, and that involves the subway or walking and OH HELL NO!

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas...

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I can read the words but they make no sense. Heat stroke, perhaps?

That was my theory.

It's going to be in the mid 90s and humid today, but at least everything is air conditioned in the South.

Much like a gigantic nuclear furnace, no?

Hands up if you want to be the first on your block to punch someone for saying "Hot enough for you?" or something equally inane.

Rather than hit someone, I think I'd rather respond, "NO! ON PLANET ZYCRON, WHERE I AM FROM, THE MEAN AVERAGE TEMPERATURE IS 238 OF YOUR EARTH FAHRENHEITS!"

hand. up.

Really though, I can't complain, given I'm in an overly cool office at the moment. My apartment might get into the high 70s, but will still be bearable. I'm just trying not to think about it.

I hate plowing through email after a vacation. Why did I come back?

Oh, right. Paycheck.
