Puddles of Glasses

[parallel]

It's been HOT... even by August in New Orleans standards as evidenced by the temp reading while not in the sun and after a 20 minute drive home.

I put my Revision Sawfly shooting glasses that I occasionally wear as sunglasses in the glasses holder of my Nissan Pathfinder this morning and burned my hand on the melted nose piece when I took them out this afternoon. Check out the puddles of melted rubber in the glasses holder. No biggie... but be careful if you have a pair of Revision Sawfly shooting glasses, particularly those of you in even hotter areas of the world.

Nice!

Did you know that apple products, like an iPod for example, have an overheat mode? I've seen that a lot this summer.

In high school, I drove a ford escort with the glass hatchback....I had the windows rolled up tight & it got so hot, the rear glass exploded outward.

I was in Las Vegas a few weeks ago....the thermometer in the jet said 145f. The glue holding the panels to the ceiling melted and the interior of the jet literally fell apart. It was so hot, we were stranded there for 3 days because we didn't have performance numbers for takeoff at those temperatures.

(donning my tinfoil hat) I can hear it now. "OMG! Global warming! We're all going to melt!"
