Hotter than a 4balled billy goat. It is not hot, it just does not take me long to look at a horseshoe. It is not hot, but is really heavy. It is so hot that canada melted and filled in the great lakes with French pudding. It is so hot that Al Gore landed one of his jets, sold the rest of his carbon credits and drove his caravan of suv’s north and discovered the North Pole. Yes he did! Santa said so. ---
