    Nice.

    The party question is based around primaries. Party can vote in party, independent can vote in one or the other at choice. I am sure there are other reasons, but that's the biggest use of it I know of.

    ya, its fine, I don't see what the big deal is, but again, I don't work outside anymore.

    plus the dew point back home in IL was 82, so this isn't shit.

    I look at it this way, this is the bad weather time of the year which last a few months and its hot, big deal. The bad weather where I came from was 9 months of clouds and cold, 2 months of stupid high humidity, with 1 good month (September), before it starts all over again

    so, so far so good, it was 105 the other day, I was inside most of the day and then went out after the sun toned down and it was great.

    I would say, Im excited to get a pool if it works out.

    Ill add that this house is built awesome is super tight, and the AC system is a beast so it cools with ease to whatever you want, Ive been leaving it at 75 which is way higher than I would at home so well see how it works out, it seems to run much easier than what I had back in IL, but then again, its WAY newer

    Pretty much. Just think of all the fun you'll have this winter telling everybody back home about the weather.

    did you get teh REAL ID, or a conventional one (that kind that lasts like 47years before expires)?
    You went to the DMV im sure, but also checkout third party offices in the future for transfers, title updates etc.

    @Breathing Borla Not as bad as it can get, but according to the TV weather douches, we have a couple of days of 112/113 coming up. You'll have to report back if you melt or not.
