Snaking the HIVE

Then try this one for size!

Cheers, LT.

Been there, done that. Hell, I managed to stay awake for damn near close to 36 hours once! I was only a half hour shy.

Been there, done that.

For an entire week? Now, that's impressive!

Cheers, LT.

Actually I managed it for 2 weeks in a row 4 summers ago. Of course it was partially the ACs fault; due to its not working I was getting more tossing and turning then actual sack time.

Ah, you wacky Americans with all that AC!

On the other hand, I sort of know that - if it's sufficiently warm, I don't need sleep at all AND I function fine.

Though once I need sleep again, I sleep veeery well!

Cheers, LT.

Have you ever lived in a desert? It is very hard to live here w/o an Air Conditioner.

Well, I visited Las Vegas, but it was full of ACs. Europe is a bit milder, though the southern countries can get very hot (South Italy, Spain).

The hardest thing is probably the impact of switching between the heat and the AC air, that always hit me hardest in Vegas, after some minutes, you can get used to it.

On the other hand, American houses are built in a way that you need AC, if it gets very hot - in South Italy and Spain, the houses are built differently, the air circulation is just better so you get feel like you're getting baked on hot days, whereas US houses are built like houses for temperate climates, then they slap an AC on it.

But there is a huge difference between that and actually living in the middle of The Valley of The Sun for more than 10 years.

No AC for this house. I would be coolin' the entire river valley.

We have a long central hallway with windows at each end. We set up fans to push the air through the house. Really nice in the evening as it begins to cool off.


Allo Hive. Been away for a few days.

I've cut back my posting here if only because my scheledule and the Hive's don't mix well. No where near as much fun without someone to "talk" to vs reply to from hours ago.

oh well.....
