Been up to near 100 for the past week or so. Kills my desire to fire up the pit to either grill or go low slow. Heat has forced us old folks to stay inside much of the day. Had lots of rain the week before so things are still green, but the humidity is higher than expected. Typical Oklahoma summer you might say. Deadly for day laborers, roofers, and those who toil outside for a living.
Oh! I forgot to say that I played golf, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Wouldn't let a little heat :puke: keep me off the links. Fun. Only the cowards stayed home. All of us around 80 y/o. Just had the ambulance and Gatorade cart follow our carts around the course. :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:

Yea temps in the 90s where I live. But I put my tent up and will be firing up the smoker tomorrow.

There were four pals who regularly played golf. One day, three came into the club house looking a bit frazzled. Someone asked what happened and they said "Everything was going well and then, on the ninth hole, Frank had a heart attack and keeled over dead."
Everyone was very shocked and stunned and then one of the folks in the clubhouse said "That must have been very painful and traumatic."
"You bet" they exclaimed. "From then on, it was hit the ball, drag Frank, hit the ball, drag Frank.....

I'm the opposite - it's too hot to use the oven in the kitchen, so ideal time to use the pellet grill - set it and forget it. ;D

I agree sometimes it seems to hot to cook on the other hand it beats eating out. So I fire up the grill and cook away. Unless I am baking which I was all day today I try and stay away from using the stove. Yes I am a senior

Yep, what he said!
Our summer heat is the main reason I got the wifi DB & DC. Much nice to cook from the living room. :clap:

So hot here, I just fire up the pit to warm, place the food in it, turn it off and it's done as usual. Oh yea, it's in the sun as well...Can you believe that? And it's Canada to boot.

Always to hot to cook in Vegas. I just deal with it and keep the cooking device in the shade. If I can.
Burgers today, 105 F 7% humidity. In the shade thank goodness.
-
I grew up in Missouri so I understand how God awful hot it feels. Fortunately, Florida summers are kinder to us old codgers but I won't go on the water in the afternoon. AM fishing only.
Same for golf, AM only. Lunch with cold beer, shower, nap. What's not to like?

Dear Abby,
I've never written to you before, but I really need your advice. I have suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me. The usual signs. Phone rings but if I answer, the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with "the girls" a lot recently although when I ask their names she always says, "Just some friends from work, you don't know them."
I always try to stay awake to look out for her coming home, but I usually fall asleep. Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my wife.
I think deep down I just didn't want to know the truth, but last night she went out again and I decided to really check on her. Around midnight, I decided to hide in the garage behind my golf clubs so I could get a good view of the whole street when she arrived home from a night out with "the girls".
It was at that moment, crouching behind my clubs, that I noticed that the graphite shaft on my driver appeared to have a hairline crack right by the club head.
Is this something I can fix myself or should I take it back to the pro shop where I bought it?
Signed,
Perplexed

To me, this is bologna and tuna fish weather; I don't care for hot foods, whether they've been cooked inside, or outside. I work around molten aluminum for a living, so this week has been kinda rough.

Bologna and tuna fish together? Sounds interesting. :2cents:

Regarding the title, yes!

Dear Perplexed,
You will definitely need a new shaft for your driver. Thank goodness you found that out before you used it again. Someone might have gotten hurt. You should thank your wife for making this possible. And don't bring up your suspicions about her, or you may not be able to afford to golf again soon. It's all about first prioities.

Reminds me of an old John Prine song.

Too hot too cook on a pellet grill?
Never, as long as there is shade.
I did singe the hair on my hand though, Fast Eddy gets really hot.

Ah the smell of fresh hair burning.

For me not so much to hot to cook, as too hot to contemplate eating hot food of any kind.
I've been living off cold meat, cheese and salad for the last week, with the occasional option of bread.

Lunch today: can of sardines in olive oil (drained), Trisket crackers, ice tea. Cat is following me all over the house. :rotf:

I try to do a couple of cans of those per week for lunch myself with some crackers and hot sauce. I really like them.

No hot sauce for me.

Sardines are very healthy to eat. They also don't live long enough to soak in any Mercury and such like other fish do. It may be an acquired taste, but I have eaten them all of my life and can get ill/mad if there's none in my pantry. I really like them.
-
No I have not.

we have to develop a taste for Sardines and Scotch. Sometimes I skip the Sardines. :D
You could use the Scotch as a dip for them. Worth a try.
