BillyVance 34 #26 August 13, 2007 Quote 7th straight day over 100 degrees today, and probably 5 more days of this to come. We're gonna smash the record of consecutive days over 100! Woo hoo!! *** Yeah, two things, Number 1, why did you wait until I got there to break a record and Number 2, didn't you set a record while we were together 10 years ago???I still can't believe that Skymama said that... Hey don't blame me, blame mama nature! And yeah we did set a small record at your old DZ 10 years ago. Of all the things you can remember, you remember that one. Check your PMs, I got a funny story to tell...

It hit 104 today here and my yard's bone dry. Now we've tied the record for the most consecutive days of highs in the 100s with 8. Going for the record breaker tomorrow!

Damn, I grew up in Arlington. Didn't look like South Davis Elementary where I went, though. But 99 degrees isn't that hot down there. I remember hotter days when I was a kid.
