I Guess "Death Valley" is a Euphemism for "John's House"

116-DEGREES PREDICTED FOR VEGAS THIS WEEK; 127 FOR DEATH VALLEY.

I think I need to water the back yard.

But its a dry heat.

[Dodger]

¡Es caliente!

[Doris Kearns Goodwin]

Sí, pero él es un calor seco.

Dry heat?
A pizza oven has dry heat. Try living in one, smart ass.

Well, that's why they put a desert there, after all.

"But it's a dry heat" is a common explanation given by people in the desert southwest when they are asked how they survive the high temperature. Search google for "But it's a dry heat" and you'll see "hunter" because apparently you've been locked in a closet for the last few decades and have never heard the expression before.

I heard that the hottest tempeture ever recorded was 137 degrees above zero way back before all this global warming poppycock was ever heard of

It's not like anybody does anything outside in Vegas, anyway. Casinos could be on the face of the sun and it wouldn't matter.

Nah, when it hits triple digits in Central Texas I may get uncomfortable, but the troops in Iraq wearing all that gear, humping through the desert -- they're hot.

If they can "Embrace the suck" in the sandbox, I can deal with a little discomfort here. Cold beer anyone?

And when ever AL GORE and the green wackos are present the tempeture is always hot
