I do not like this way too strong sun that burns me within 20 minutes of being in it, it ruins the use of having an convertible.

I believe you can go register your complaint at the nearest branch of this facility:

But that requires going outside and we northerners don't do well in this heat :lol:

It's cooler than normal in Texas again. I guess the "ship the heat off to the Yankees" plan is working.

Yes I heard this was payback for the snow last winter.

Wha? I drove to work with the top down this morning and it was fine. Last weekend was a different story, top sayed up until Sunday evening. You need to stop being a vampire.

1. Sweet, hope it stays that way for a couple weeks while I help my parents move.
2. Note to self, look for huge air-conditioning exhaust duct running from Texas to Massachusetts.

Today it is rather cloudy on and off so that is different. Not that it mattered as mom never lets me take my car if we are both going somewhere

When did you get an MR2 o.o

I miss it too . Although I saw one yesterday, a red one with black wheels..driven by a girl. Its funny because any form of sports car is very rare on Sri Lanka yet I have seen 2 NSXs! And to see one driven by a girl is pretty sexy!
/me goes to watch the last bit of Fast & Furious...

1. Note that I didn't say it was cool, just cooler than normal. Normal is 100F. We're running around 10 degrees cooler than that at the moment.

2. Oh, no, we wouldn't be that blatant. You know all those windmills we're putting up out in West Texas - the largest wind farm on the planet? Yeah... generators become motors if you feed them current, and the things are aimable.

Essentially, we can hook them up to the nuclear reactors and they become the world's largest fan array. We then use them to blow the hot air in the general direction of the Northeast.


We need more nuclear reactors before we can consider air conditioning the entire state and venting the exhaust towards MA.

Silly white person. Go to your local vampire hangout and borrow some SPF9000.

April, a couple months after selling the Jag. This is what you miss out on when you're not on FG or Facebook!

Bugger. Any humidity?

Lots, duh, we're in Texas

While everyone bitches about what race is "better" I am pretty sure people from hot places having darker skin is so they are roasted like someone like me who's genes come from a country of drizzle.

Facebook is dumb and should go away.

Exactly so.

67 degrees and little humidity. I love WA.

Took wife's old Ford Escort to the scrapyard yesterday, one of the gazillion faults on it was a busted radiator. It still managed to run all the 20 km to the scrapyard without a drop of coolant which impressed me a bit. My old old Honda threw a rod after 8 km without cooling.

Yeah, it's nice now... that heatwave a couple of weeks back was killer, assume you guys had it too.

 

[Labcoatguy]

Well crap. My parents said that North Texas was a lot like Nashville, and I was hoping against hope that humidity wasn't part of it.

I'm digging this XJR. Wonder how much guns fit in the trunk.

Looks to be in pretty decent shape for an XJR.

The least he could do is use a boot plinth that matches the badging. The plinth (handle) is from a Series III and the badges are from an X30x.

Ontarians: If you see this car running around, please set it on fire immediately. Thank you.
