Morning posers, good luck Jdub, we had cable TV in Genessee county jail at lunch and supper time. One, like 18" screen TV, way up on the wall. Not sure who picked the channel and didn't care to ask.

hotter than usual in Phoenix (116 degrees just set a new record)
Must have been for that day, not unusual to top 115 in September, and there were a few 120+ (F for these temps) September days when I lived there. When it's 120, it's a little like riding below 32, exposed skin can be painful. FF, long sleeves, gloves; seems ridiculous in the heat. Only took the wimpshield off in the winter, too. When temps got around 110, I'd take the cage to werk; air temp a few feet off the asphalt could top 140, imagine sitting in that at stoplights... I briefly got tunnel vision a couple times, was afraid I might pass out. That was in the car, too; had to turn the air off to keep it from overheating. Later, thought about pulling the thermostat - that actually helped a lot. Last car I had there, had to pull the 'stat in early summer, put it back in around December. Lucky it was a Ford V8, easy to do. Lot of guys told me a car overheats without a thermostat 'cause the coolant runs through too fast to cool off. Old wive's tale, utter nonsense, worked fine on a variety of cars and trucks I did it with.

Tests... I musta taken over 100 of em for the job, A&P tests were just the beginning. Only a few more were Federal, most was just different specialty ratings for the job, and on going training. Got paid full wages for lots of hours inna classroom, not all bad.
