You Know You Are in Arizona When...

You've signed so many petitions to recall governors you can't remember the name
of the incumbent.
You notice your car overheating before you drive it.
You no longer associate bridges or rivers with water.
You know a swamp cooler is not a happy hour drink.
You can hear the weather forecast of 115 degrees without flinching.
You can be in the snow, then drive for an hour...and it will be over 100
degrees.
You discover, in July it only takes two fingers to drive your car, because your
steering wheel is so hot.
You can make sun tea instantly.
You run your a/c in the middle of winter so you can use your fireplace.
The best parking is determined by shade.....not distance.
You realize that "Valley Fever" isn't a disco dance.
Hotter water comes from the cold water tap than the hot one.
It's noon in July, kids are on summer vacation and yet all the streets are
totally empty of both cars and people.
You actually burn your hand opening the car door.
Sunscreen is sold year round, kept right at the checkout counter.
Sunscreen with less than 50 spf is a joke.
You put on fresh sunscreen just to go check the mail box.
Some fools will market mini-misters for joggers and some other fools will
actually buy them. Worse.....some fools actually try to jog.
You know hot air balloons can't rise because the air temperature is hotter than
the air inside the balloon.
No one would dream of putting vinyl inside a car.
You see two trees fighting over a dog.
 

just cover

Normal, Ill
I made the mistake of going out in late July to my wife's uncles house in Phoenix. He had 2 free airfares he wasn't going to use and asked if we wanted to come out for a long weekend. Of course since it was free I jumped at it. My GOD it didn't get below 110 all 4 days and I could hardly stand it even at night on his deck. I mean he is pretty well off and has a decent size house but it was kept at 75 inside. I wonder what the hell his electric bill is. I would jump in the pool and it felt like bath water. I will take the humidity of Illinois in the summers with the changing seasons anyday.
