In Oklahoma

[cowgirltease]

YOU KNOW YOU ARE IN OKLAHOMA in JULY WHEN...

~ The birds have to use potholders to pull worms out of the ground.

~ The trees are whistling for the dogs.

~ The best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.

~ Hot water now comes out of both taps.

~ You can make sun tea instantly.

~ You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.

~ The temperature drops below 95 and you feel a little chilly.

~ You discover that in July it only takes 2 fingers to steer your car.

~ You discover that you can get sunburned through your car window.

~ You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

~ You break into a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m.

~ Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up
lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

~ You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.

~ The potatoes cook underground, so all you have to do is pull one out and
add butter, salt and pepper.

~ Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying
boiled eggs.

~ The cows are giving evaporated milk.

:D

That's too funny :)

[PantyFanatic]

LMAO :)

I have the "snow" ones sent to me all the time, but that DOES sound like fact when it comes to heat. lol


ty CGT

[cowgirltease]

Oh I got another one.......:D




Bless this house, oh Lord, we cry.

Please keep it cool in mid-July.

Bless the walls where termites dine,

While ants and roaches march in time.

Bless our yard where spiders pass

The fire ant castles in the grass.

Bless the garage, a home to please

Carpenter beetles, ticks and fleas.

Bless the love bugs, two by two,

The gnats and mosquitoes that feed on you.

Millions of creatures that fly or crawl,

In Oklahoma, Lord, you've put them all!

But this is home, and here we'll stay,

So thank you Lord, for insect spray.

[PantyFanatic]

LOL :D

cowgirltease,

Good ones! Thank you.

It is interesting to note the similarities between the comments made about the heat of an Australian summer and the heat of an American one. I wonder what a Pixie in the steppes of Central Asia might say.

Who knows, with luck, sometime soon someone may do just that!

[Sugarsprinkles]

ROTFLMAO, CGT!!!!!


That all sound so very much like SW Missouri too!! Gonna have to pass it along to some friends.

[LixyChick]

LMAO! Good ones CGT!

[Teddy Bear]

Both very funny!

Could be here in August -- add to it 90%+ humidity!!

TY cgt. :)

[maddy]

OI! Sounds a wee bit like Texas too! I had to kick in my second AC unit this weekend, Reliant Energy is soon going to be a huge fan of me.

[jay-t]

lol cg the first one is so true

[cowgirltease]

Yep those sayings are holding true right now. 100 degree heat and damn bugs everywhere! The bugs have now become playtoys for my kitties here. It's the only amusement I get out of them. LOL :rolleyes:

[Steph]

LOL My dog loves the bugs, too.

It's cool here today, though. :mad: How's the weather in Oklahoma today?

[cowgirltease]

It rained here yesterday and stayed cloudy. This morning it's a nice 77 degrees. The sky is clear so, there's no telling how high it will get today. It will be humid as hell I know that much.

[huntersgirl]

Those were very funny!!! Thanks :)

[Oldfart]

CGT, add 100% humidity and we Pixies tropicals will join in.

Here, motor vehicle first aid has as a priority getting the poor bugger off the road

before they cook.

Asphalt burns take months to heal.

[cowgirltease]

Dang! I'm showing 74% humidity and I thought we were bad! :(

[Oldfart]

It's not that bad at the moment.

I'll bet that Lil and the other Floridians are suffering though.

My humid hell starts again about September.

It's winter here, freezing overnight at 18C (75F) and 40-80% humidity.

[Lilith]

Our humidity is only 74% right now and it's only going to get to 91 today so...a much cooler day here.

[Steph]

<sob> It's only 20 degrees celsius here!
