Hot. Best cantankerous cuss this side of Twain.
Marvel Comics’s Civil War II series
Not. I just can’t get into comics.
Arnold Palmers, the drink
Not, I don’t drink iced tea or lemonade, mixing them seems like the worst of both worlds.
destiny
Hot. We make our own destinities. Sure, crap happens, but there is much we are in control of.
Luck
right now? not so hot.
steakhouses
Hot. I haven’t been to many, but the ones I have been to, I’ve enjoyed very much.
Cap’n Crunch cereal
Hot. Some kids never grow up.
Grape Nuts
Hot. Though I no longer eat cereal, I used to love it.
snow tires
Not. I live in California.
NBC Olympic coverage.
Hot. Could watch soccer all day, along with 8 other channels of sports.
Horseback riding
Not, they smell and I feel bad for the horse. I’d rather drive a 4 wheeler or dune buggy.
Desert tortoise lying on its back in the hot sun
Hot in temperature; not hot conceptually
Baseball
Hot, even though I am a currently-suffering Giants fan.
Autumn
Hot. Especially in San Francisco, where it’s our hottest season.
Baskin Robbins
Hot, but not as good as Ben & Jerry’s.
koi ponds
Hot, if not mine to tend.
Ludovico technique
Not. Not something I ever want to experience.
naked baby photos
Not. Why is nudity cool with babies when it’s almost universally frowned upon by society otherwise?
the 588-2300 EMPIIIIRE jingle
Not. For how many more decades are they gonna use that lame jingle? And the “today” bugs me.
wall-to-wall carpeting
Hot, good for sound and thermal insulation.
Bot flies
