I'll take the 4 seasons and enjoy the snowy winters over that desert any day.
I will take it any day. I cannot stand our summers here when you come out of the shower and cannot dry off due to the humidity. You might as well not even have taken a shower. Same goes for the swimming pool. Nothing worse than walking around in sweat soaked clothes and sweat dripping down you back! Its hot there but with the lack of humidity it is bearable.

By the 1972 model year, the insurance companies had a stranglehold on muscle cars. One of the ways Dodge sidestepped them was to drop the R/T moniker which had been tagged by the ins. companies and introduce the Challenger and Charger Rallye.

In 1939, American author Ernest Vincent Wright published Gadsby, a 50,000-word novel that doesn’t use the letter ‘e’ once.

In 1963, major league baseball pitcher Gaylord Perry remarked, "They'll put a man on the moon before I hit a home run." On July 20, 1969, an hour after Neil Armstrong set foot on the surface of the moon, Perry hit is first, and only, home run while playing for the San Francisco Giants.

The star Antares is 60,000 times larger than our sun. If our sun were the size of a softball, the star Antares would be as large as a house.

The main library at Indiana University sinks over an inch a year. When it was designed engineers failed to take into account the weight of all the books that would occupy the building.
