It's Too Darn Hot!

Holy Crow! I just glanced at my Weatherbug and noticed that it is 97 degrees in my little corner of Oklahoma. Man, this summer is going to broil and reek up here. Tack on the high gas prices and it could be too much for this monkey to bear.

It makes me think of that great Cole Porter song "Too Darn Hot" from Kiss Me, Kate. I remember this piece with great warmth (n.p.i.) because my high school show choir performed it. It's a great musical and well worth your time. Granted it is a little risque for its time, and you wonder how some of the lines went over. What's funny for me is the song now makes more sense and therefore shocks me when I realize what it was that I was singing. Oh, well, chalk it up to naivete.
