If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes

Our weather has been really shit-tastic. Weirdest summer on record in New York for yonks. We've had more thunderstorms and torrential downpours than you can shake a broken umbrella at.

Yes, at.

Even with all the rain, daily temperatures are still pretty high. Think 75 to 80 degrees with pretty good humidity, by which I mean it's humid, but you don't have a hard time breathing or need a shower 10 times a day.

In the midst of this, Mitch and I saw an Indian couple crossing the road. I didn't mean to set that up as a joke, but here's the punchline: she was wearing a traditional saree, he was wearing a sweatshirt and ear muffs.
