Our AC went out yesterday afternoon and it started blowing hot air: 110 degrees outside, 96 inside. The air-conditioning repair dude and dudette didn't make it by until 5:30, but they got it fixed before dark (loose wire in thermostat) but, man, did the experience make us appreciate air conditioning!
Not much makes a hat guy prouder or happier than seeing his offspring in a hat!
"Southern houses and buildings once had space and windows and deep porches. This was perhaps the most beautiful and comfortable ordinary architecture in the United States, but it is no longer built, because of air-conditioning."
—Joan Didion, "South And West" 1970
