Really? Because I have a few things I'd love to have video compilations of. Portable even!

I wonder why someone hasn't invented a duvet or mattress that vents cool air through it.

At night Why cool the whole house, or even the whole room?

Just like a vented Car seat...

God, it was too hot to sleep

I followed the sound of a jukebox coming from a levee
All of a sudden I could hear somebody whistling from right behind me
I turned around and she said
"Why do you always end up down at Nick's Cafe?"
I said, "I don't know, the wind just kind of pushed me this way"
She said, "Hang the rich"

Pshaw, it was +47c when I left Kurdistan. This 30c is balmy and comfy, even in my craptacular house with no AC.

Sure, but the average high temperature in Erbil is 42 degrees in July. In Calgary, it's 23 degrees. There's a significant difference, and in Kurdistan they're used to that kind of heat.

Since last summer we've added central ac and a baby at my house. They're both great, but I slept better last summer.

Oooh this hot summer has got me down again,
Fry an egg on the street
Heatwaves a wigglin' on the sidewalk,
Cops are droppin like flies on the beat,
I need a new lover to take me in,
Protect me from this humid air,
Be you from brooklyn, staten island or queens,
I don't care It don't matter kinda lovin' you're into,
Or how big your apartment might be,
All you need's an air conditioner,
And you're the man for me
You can pour me a glass of Perrier,
You can fan my fevered brow,
You can rub my down with alcohol,
But ain't enough!
No how
You can lay me in a tub of ice,
you can spin me in a cold shower, too,
But if you don't have an air conditioner,
I will not go home with you
It don't matter kinda lovin' you're into,
Or how big your ego might be,
All you need's an air conditioner,
And you are the man,
You are the man,
You are the man,
You are my man,
You are the man for me
Bye, bye,
Bye, bye,
Buh buh buh badadadada,
Aooh aooh
What's that you say?
You live by the hudson river?
And a breeze blows through your door?
Well, honey, if you don't have
a freidrichs in your window,
I don't want to hear anymore
You say you live in a penthouse,
You got a terrace with a view of the night,
Well, that's swell,
But I really must tell you,
An air conditioner is a much prettier sight
It don't matter kinda lovin' you're into,
Or how big your apartment might be,
All you need's an air conditioner,
And you're the man oh,
You're the man,
I don't care what kinda lovin' you're into,
Or how big your ... might be,
All you need's an air conditioner,
And you're the man oh,
You're the man oh,
You're the man for me
Bada dah dah dah dah
