I heard about the heat wave my folks are up in Laughlin now and they're talking mid 120s...but only 4% humidity...out here in DC 90 degrees with 90% feels way hotter than Phx ever did...living near the ocean...well that was a Navy thing

I'm usually doing the night shift also. This time of year though it's only dark for a few hours. You guys mention long hours,here's mine 17/7 7 days a week till we're full. Here's what I stare at,not really I'm usually looking outside.

Yeah I agree on that one. I grew up in Nebraska. When you take a shower, dry off and then when you're done you're wet again, it sucks big time. I can't take the humidity with the heat much anymore. It just really messes with my hair...

So you float a boat? Very cool. Bet it's pretty hard work though from what I see on the reality shows. I think it would have me for lunch what you guys do.
