Think so. IIRC the license plate reads 'SLOWZUKA'

I've been back to work for almost a week now after a couple of weeks in Europe.

I thought I left the 95ºF in Rome.

Am I in upstate NY cause its gonna be 94ºF today in Binghamton with 70% humidity?

This is ridiculous!

welcome back Gordy. Hope the trip went well.

I have no problems with heat, it is the humidity that I'm not used to and can't stand. Everytime I walk out the building over the last 2 days, my glasses have fogged up.

Best and most expensive vacation of my life.

About 3 days in each city, plus train travel time between each:
London, Paris, Venice, and Rome in that order.

It started out warm (about 80ºF) and got warmer at each city. I made sure that each hotel and apartment had A/C before I booked them. We drank a lot of water (some wine and lemon-cello) and ate a lot of gellato

Did you find any non-carbonated water in Italy? I was in Rome about 10 years ago and found it hard to quench my thirst with fizzy water. Gellato helped!

Too hot for top down, or the bike. Besides, I think they are doing the oil and stone treatment to my road today.

Interview with Ford's SVT Boss. Provides an insight into how Ford is being proactive about the whole Raptor frame-bending issue.

I especially like how they are not just blowing the owners off but appear to be looking into the matter with an open mind.
