I continue to be confused, upset and thirsty due to this overly hot June weather we’ve been experiencing. This is not normal, yet I don’t see anyone worried about it. I want an explanation from someone about what’s going on. I need an interview with Mother Nature or God or Oprah. I want hope that temperatures will drop and we’ll return to a normal summer — where you can run in the park without dying, go for a stroll at lunchtime without sweating through your shirt, and cruise up and down Bardstown Road with the window down, AC off.

But the one good thing about 100-degree weather: You don’t pee as much when drinking beer.
