  1. Doesn't hold a candle to Obama at a banquet honoring a Marine "Corpseman".
  2. With full sun and an 82 degree pool to take a dip in after cutting the grass... Damn straight. Best day of summer
  3. Rubbish. The seas rising less than 1mm a year are much more of a concern. I heard Obama wanted to buy a 15 million dollar mansion on the water in Martha's Vineyard and fellow alarmist Al Gore wanted a 25 million dollar one in Malibu on the Pacific. Fortunately, those 2 wise men realized the seas would inundate these properties in short order and make their investments worthless.
  4. But yet in your mind you are disappointed the kids don't have to suffer playing the tournament in a blazing sun 90/72 environment.
  5. He gave up nothing. He got a huge endorsement deal from Nike and became the darling of the far left. He turned down an offer from the Niners which was the best he was going to get on the market because of the crap season he had. His girlfriend is a radical and turned him into an activist. So you can agree with his message but he's far from genuine.
  6. Unless dews are down below 55, my central AC is on as soon as the house temp goes over 72. With a breeze, I'll tolerate mid 70s with low dews. If I'm going to pay to run my pool filter 11 hrs a day, I sure as hell am going to pay to keep myself comfortable inside my house.
  7. I agree with you. He on the other hand doesn't understand the need for AC whatsoever
  8. Yeah. Much more pleasant to sleep in a sweaty bed and wake up to tacky hardwood floors under your feet.. Also great for my Samoyed dog who is suited for Arctic cold. She would absolutely love to live like a homeless man during Summer.
  9. When not humid, AC day, windows at night. Plenty of fresh air. Dews over 60, I'm keeping the house 71 and dry
  10. Summer is a quarter of the calender year and some years May and /or October have hot spells. Hell it can be a soupy 65/65 out there anytime and I will flip the damn thing on to take the moisture out of the house. I hate sleeping when I feel clammy. You are retired, I am getting there. The things in life I won't tolerate are being uncomfortable in my home and not eating well.
  11. As I do here in SE NY but come mid June--Mid September I'm not keeping my house 70-72 without using AC a majority of days
  12. I was living at a similar elevation in the Hudson Highlands and still needed AC most days of summer. If dews were low then the nights would cool but days still hot
  13. Dews are higher. It's not only him though
  14. You don't need anything but one portable AC in your bedroom and roll it back in the closet 85% of the summer
  15. Just the whisper quiet aspect of not hearing the abrasive noise of a window unit is worth the cost. I stopped using Central Heat this house I just bought near West Point. Hot water baseboard heat doesn't make me wake up with a sore throat in morning like hot forced air always did without running several humidifiers
  16. Maine, NH, VT, NNY... I get it. Mass, CT, RI.. A different story
  17. The lack of Central AC on this sub forum resulting in hundreds of post regarding installing/not installing is astounding.
  18. While I agree with much of what you state here, this mass hysteria, listen to me /vote for me or else mass Social Media outreach was weaponized by the Obama campaign in 2008 to get him elected. Realizing it's effectiveness, other's have attempted to emulate it since. Back to the pool on this summery, somewhat humid morning....
  19. So sitting outside on a cool summer night in a sweater is unpleasant but when it's hot, sticky and bugs are swarming around your head, everything is nirvana. You can't reason with that logic. It's either BS or insanity.
  20. Maybe you can post a pic of someone trying to enjoy their backyard and having to swat gnats and mosquitoes from their face during the more humid days. Sounds much more pleasant.
  21. If you wanted reasonably humid summers and decent snowfall, one wouldn't ever have moved to NYC.
