I wouldn't live in that Godforsaken area for love or money...I live in Alberta where even when temperatures are high at times the humidity
level is relatively low.

You live in a frozen tundra so inhospitable that for 6 months of the
year those who can afford to bug out for Arizona, Texas, and Florida.

Alberta is part of North America's largest walk-in beer cooler.

LOL!

While Bush’s speech writers like to portray US policy in terms of moral

and privilege of the ruling oligarchy by whatever means are required.

In the 1930s and 1940s this overriding consideration led George W.
Bush’s grandfather to establish a profitable commercial relationship
with the Nazis. In the 1980s, it underlay the alliance forged—in no
small part by George W. Bush’s father, the senior President Bush—with
the Islamic fundamentalists in the war against the Soviet-backed regime
in Afghanistan. Today it is at the heart the younger Bush’s policies of
militarism and colonialism abroad and repression and social attacks at home.

Well, 100% humidity generally occurs around daybreak; by the middle of
the day it can be down to 40%, although we're enjoying a little gift
of warm, moist air from the South and it's 89 F, 54% humidity right now.

I see we had a very nice day in early May: 64 F, 25% humidity. My
conjecture on our minimum seems to have been a bit off.

Eventually, Brown Brothers Harriman—the largest private investment bank
in America at the time—came to be dominated by S&B members. George
Bush’s grandfather, George Herbert Walker, served as the bank’s
President. His father, Prescott, served as the bank’s Vice President.[8*]

Brown Brothers Harriman was helped to ascension by the powerful Warburg
“Jewish” banking monopoly—one of the principle controlling interests
behind the German conglomerate I.G. Farben, which, ironically, provided
not only the gas, but much of the funds used to effect Hitler’s “final
solution.” Brown Brothers had funded American slave plantations during
the Civil War, and former Brown Brothers partner, Bank of England
Governor Montagu Collet Norman, was known as the most avid supporter of
Hitler within British ruling circles. Brown Brothers-Harriman would
become the largest and most politically influential private banking
house in the United States.[9]

The elder Bush was also director of the Holland-American Trading
Corporation and the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation—both Nazi front
companies. Like father like son, George Herbert Walker Bush would later
go on to form similar business alliances with Iraqi dictator Saddam
Hussein, taking in personal oil kickbacks, and arming that country with
conventional, biological and chemical weapons, both in violation of his
own Arms Control and Armaments Amendments Act, and as a prelude to a war
which he would instigate and precipitate.

At a ceremony in Dearborn, Michigan, Henry Ford is presented with the
Grand Cross of the Supreme Order of the German Eagle on his 75th
birthday. Henry Ford is the first American recipient of this, an honor
created a year earlier by Adolf Hitler. This is the highest honor Nazi
Germany could give to any foreigner and represents Adolf Hitler’s
personal admiration and indebtedness to Henry Ford. The presentation is
made by Karl Kapp, German consul in Cleveland, and Fritz Heller, German
consular representative in Detroit. Ford is the only American mentioned
in Hitler’s book “Mein Kampf”.

I hadn't thought of the bromelain but that makes me really ill. Some years
ago I bought some digestive supplements at the health food store and told
the owner that I could not have bromelain. I had tried something else on my
own and it didn't set well.

She wound up selling me the wrong kind and I knew it as soon as I started
burping. It was near constant and lasted all night. Stomach pains too.
Thankfully she took them back and gave me the right ones.

I hate that. PA can be like that at times. I'd be like... Why take a
shower? I'll just be miserable! I would get into a cold shower for about 5
minutes and that would be good but the instant I stepped out. Ack! And I
hated touching surfaces like wood. They'd be sticky.

I am pretty sure I would LOVE Alberta. I love winter. My internal thermostat is royally
messed up.

Raise it. Everything is so dry. My skin, my hair, the lawn... We've had
nothing measurable in the form of rain for many weeks now. Right now it is
73 outside but 85 in the house with 37% humidity. I haven't messed with the
swamp cooler yet today because I have to go out for a little while.

What I don't get is... Why does the house get and stay soooo much hotter?
It got down to 63 in the middle of the night but it was still 86 in the
house even with 14 fans, 2 ceiling fans and the swamp cooler. I did buy
some shades for the deck but I don't want to put them up until after the
house is painted. And he can't paint until the temp. drops.

I have posted of it here before. I don't care to hear yours or anyone
else's opinion. Bottom line, the stomach pains are gone and my blood sugar
is in range most of the time, as opposed to running up around 400-500.
Dental problems solved and eyes no longer bleeding. So...

Fans only circulate air, they don't cool it. All of those fans create heat
so they just add to your discomfort. Get a proper AC if you want to survive
or go jump in the Pacific ocean as it isn't far from where you live.

I know all that stuff but that just won't work in this house. For one
thing, none of the windows have sills big enough to accommodate anything
more than a tiny fan. And this house was remodeled. I would say that it is
all one level but due to the way that they remodeled it, the part I am
sitting in now is probably 6" lower than the front of it. There is a tiny
ramp-like piece of wood that connects this room to the dining room.

The living room has no window that can be opened. There is a window. It
just can't be opened. I did have a new storm door put in that is solid at
the bottom but the top piece of glass can slide down and there is a screen
there.

Basically this house is very long from the front to the back but not exactly
shotgun style. The bedrooms and bathrooms all go off to one side and the
kitchen and laundry room off to the other. No windows in the laundry room.
Very tiny windows in the kitchen which when opened, cranks the heat up about
10 degrees. So I do leave them shut. I can open the door which is a jury
rigged screen door, made solid at the bottom. That helps a little but there
is no real way to get cool air over to the end where the stove is.

So your stupid little theories won't work here.

You're the one who bought the house.

This is the second year in a row you've talked about how hot it is, so
apparently it *does* get hot where you live. You're on your second
swamp cooler, a gadget which doesn't seem to help one iota. I'm sure a
competent contractor could help you figure out a solution to the cooling
problem. Oh, I forgot. You don't want suggestions or solutions.

LOL, Nancy2 He has said in the past his mother cooked lamb and
talked about how bad it smelled. I'm convinced she never cooked lamb.
Sure sounds like she was cooking the hell out of *mutton*.

It is normally 105 - 110 here all summer, around 80 at night. A few times
115, and rarely 120. Humidity around 50% My swamp cooler works just fine,
I use it and a couple of fans to direct the cool air though the house. I
have to turn off the cooler and fams around 9 PM or it gets too cold.

I've not used the A/C in years.

Yeast!

Any food that gets too yeasty, and I get a splitting headache 5 to 24
hours later.

Took me a long time to diagnose this. Some beers used to do this to
me, I should never touch Anchor Steam, for example, but I never knew
why. Then I met a guy who had a much more serious yeast allergy, he'd
go full anaphylactic if the pancake batter was left exposed to air
five minutes too long! I slowly realized this was the key to mine,
too, though I don't recall ever being affected by pancakes. But
sometimes baked goods, if the batter is left too long, or the items
are a couple of days old but still OK for most people, will set me
off.

I also tend to avoid buffets for this reason. And it makes me an
excellent restaurant inspector, if they don't store things at legal
temperatures they tend to get a little yeasty, and it will bite me.

LOL, 14 fans in one house... Julie's gone back to default mode again,
I see. For a few days there, her posts were all perfectly normal. Then
'it' starts again... I've noticed this cycle several times now.
Sometimes I get curious as to what truly motivates her to post these
ridiculous posts when she can clearly choose *not* to do it.

I'm curious if the local housing authority and her homeowners insurance
know that there are no viable fire escape routes from the bedrooms, or any
rooms for that matter, other than the main doors in that house? Sounds
not only cat-proof, but human-proof.

14 fans blowing hot air around. I honestly don't care if she wants to
be uncomfortable in her her own home. I just wonder why she keeps
posting about it.

Let's see. I have one near the front door. One near the two bedrooms. I
bought one for husband to put in his room but he didn't. Angela has one by
her computer. I have two little battery operated ones near mine. She has
the same on the back of the couch. There is one on the kitchen counter near
the door. There is a big one around the corner from the kitchen door.
There is one by the sliding door. One by one window in this room and a tiny
one in the other window. It is a personal fan so basically just blows on
whichever cat is on the perch. There is another little one in front of the
couch. And there are two in each bedroom, one by each bed. So I guess we
are really only using 13.

There are a lot of windows in this house but several of them don't open.

Keep in mind that the entire middle portion of this house, has no windows
whatever. It's just a walk through dining room. Which obviously nobody
uses for any reason when it is hot. Nobody likes to sit in an oven and
that's essentially what it is. This is in no way any kind of a normal floor
plan.

What's ridiculous about that? My parents used to use at least 6 fans in
their house although they did have a basement and it was almost always cool
down there. They lived closer to the water so the temp. at their house was
often 10 degrees cooler than here.

Do you people not know how fans work? Yes, given the right situation, they
can suck hot air out and vent it outside. That won't work in this house.
They work to cool the body off by blowing on it. Therefore, I need a lot of
them in various places. Sure I could do what some people do and carry one
around with me but... I prefer to have them sitting where I need them. And
they may not all be on at once. I currently have only one going. The one
by the sliding door. Our weather is cooler today and will be tomorrow and
yet it has only gone down to 75 degrees in here.

When I worked at the golf course, it was commonly 100 degrees in the pro
shop and like an oven out in the clearance section. The dining room (rarely
used) was a pleasant temperature as was the restaurant portion. The ladies
restroom was like a freezer and the mens restroom wasn't much better.
Someone explained to me why this was. Had something to do with where the
sensors were placed. But why they never corrected the problem was beyond
me.

We did have a huge fan in there behind the counter. And you had better
believe that we stood in front of it when we were stuck in there. When not
stuck in there, we either ran outside which was almost always cooler or in
the dining room if we could manage it. We were not supposed to go in there
but sometimes things just got too unbearable and it was either that or get
heat exhaustion.

Yes, the big fan was blowing hot air but it was the blowing part that helped
to cool us off, even if only a little bit.

What are you talking about? This house has 5 exterior doors. It's a 1700
sq. ft. building. With that many doors, there is no need to go out a
window!

Oh snap! I think I only listed two ceiling ones. There are three. They
should have put one in the dining room. I think that would have really
helped.

We had a three bedroom house on Cape Cod that was bigger than this. But it
had a different floor plan entirely and a basement. It got very hot and
muggy there every summer and I managed with no AC up until I got pregnant.
And then I got grumpy. Got a window unit for the spare bedroom which was
where the computer was. I pretty much moved in there. I'd use the kitchen
or bathroom but even ate my meals in there.

Pregnancy does weird things to ya. I never had any food cravings like some
do. Perhaps because I was good to take vitamins and I ate only healthy
foods. When I do have cravings, it is because my body is lacking in
something, like magnesium.

But I did crave comfort! Towards the end, I was miserable because my feet
and lower legs ballooned up. I was starting to go into Pre-Eclampsia when I
was induced a day early. And I couldn't really elevate my feet very well
because I was told only to lie down on my left side. So I could elevate the
one leg somewhat but trying to do the left leg was a tad uncomfortable.
That's where the AC helped. The cold air helped to bring the swelling down.

I remember going to the Mutual of Omaha Zoo in Nebraska when we were passing
through. It was a wicked hot day and we had to do a lot of walking.
Normally I like going to the zoo but this was too much. I found a little
building with a fake cow in it and it had AC. The cow was nice and cool and
I kept hugging it. Husband was getting mad at me because he thought I had
some sort of thing for the cow. I couldn't get him to understand that it
was the AC I was after.

Back at the motel, I was so miserable from the swelling of my feet and legs
that I made numerous trips to the ice machine, filling anything and
everything that I had. I always travel with at least a few zip top bags.
Could have used a few more that time! I got on the bed and packed bags of
ice all over my feet and legs and within about a half an hour, the swelling
went down.

I don't know what it is about heat that does that to me. Also really dry
air, too much humidity and flying in an airplane. Maybe it's because I am a
Cancer. I just have a great propensity for swelling.
