interesting.. i wish i had a heat to beat =(

i have a hard time understand why people (90% of everyone i've talked to) don't like humidity.. i love it =/

when you can hardly breathe and your clothes stick to your body.. it's great!

Heat sucks...

The current heat wave means that I have to wear sunscreen before I even step outside, or I burn, all the stores are selling out of fans, and I have to go buy ice cream everyday or it's just unbearable.

Though I don't think I'd resort to that something or other 'sweat-cream' that the woman in the article did.

The heat also means that women in Japan are displaying an unprecedented amount of bare chest flesh. While actual glimpses of cleavage or the upper swell of bosoms are rare, necklines are lower and wider than ever before.

Sounds good to me :cool:
30-35° is nice, but more soon becomes unconfortable :relief:
