Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self. - Cyril Connolly

If you think it's hot here.....
My buddy Robert who just returned from 2.5 years in Baghdad, reports that summer temps are ROUTINELY in the 115-120 range in Iraq, and they had several days where it hit 140. That's One hundred and FORTY degrees - not a typo.

In a country where even electricity can be a luxury, air conditioning is scarce, and the local culture frowns on things like public swimming pools.

Suck it up.
