Drink enough water, and you'll be fine.

I spent a day in the summer of 1990 (I think - it's gotten fuzzy) selling Electrolux vacuum cleaners door-to-door in 122 degrees F in Phoenix, Arizona.

My rubber-soled leather shoes were leaving smears of molten rubber on the curbs - I kid you not.

I was in a three-piece wool suit, in very dark blue, and I drank at least a gallon and a half of water in about three hours.

When I got back to the office, my boss told me that I was the last one to come in. Everyone else had gone home around noon.

I made three sales that day, and I still can't figure out if it was because they thought I was crazy, or because they felt sorry for me, or what.

After that, I'm reasonably certain I can wear a kilt darned near anywhere, wool or polyviscose.

Anything over 110 is just "really darned hot," and there's very little you can do about it.

I'm looking forward to a couple of SWKs to complement my one 16oz/8-yard tank...
