Hot Steve !!!

[Sydney Steve]

New Years Day 2006 in Sydney was just DISGUSTING weatherwise. :(
As you people mostly work in fahrenheit I will make it plain.

It was over 112 degrees F for most of the afternoon.
It was still over 100 F at 10 pm and we don't have a pool or air conditioning! It is the first day I can remember where I drank more soft drink than beer ! We could barely eat either -the thought of it was not inviting...

Here you go, Steve. Do you feel cooler now? Hey, anything for a friend!!

[Cathy]

Sheryl, maybe you should send some of that LA rain Steve's way. It sounds like he could use a couple of nice, cool showers.

[Sheryl]

HAHAHAHA, he will after checking out the lovely girls in the foreground and the cool, icy mountains in the background!!! (Be happy to send some of this water your way, Steve! We won't have to water for a month!)

[Sheryl]

OK, Steve, here's another picture guaranteed to cool you down.

OOPS!

[joveski]

hbey, why the sympathy for steve-o??

we had 110'F here :)

ps: steve-o, i'll be up in sydney between january 16th and 27th.. wanna catch up to "discuss" interstate politcs :D

[Sydney Steve]

Even people from the US/Canada would be well aware that those people who voluntarily reside in Melbourne,(Aus.) deserve no sympathy as they are obviously gluttons for punishment -(or are demonstrably detestable characters - eg Catman Ron)...Pfft...
Sydneysiders on the other hand , live in heaven on earth and deserve nothing less than perfection..
On another thread related subject I am unclear on whether the normally lovely Sheryl was being mischievous by providing certain visuals that were likely to do anything BUT cool me down.. The jury is out on that one...
(Also it was hardly cooling due to the frustration factor as I couldn't work out how to magnify them so as to get my heavy breathing into action).

[Sheryl]

Cheers, Steve! Have a beer and cool youself down! Like I said... anything for a friend!! ;)

Actually Stevo if you had searched for and found the full sized original of Sheryl's '"tease" you would have been far less excited:-

Hi Sydney Steve, Hey, right now I'm wearing my old sweatshirt that says Austrailia Sport Club. If you were cold, you could have it.
