f'n weather

Tokyo, 2010.07.24

Canadians like to complain about the weather. "F'n weather" is practically a greeting in my country.

Today, it's hot in Tokyo. It's been very hot recently, but today's it's just .. wrong.

"Feels like 39ºC" at 07:15. The forecast high is 35ºC, though, and if the humidity stays constant .. let's see, using this calculator .. "Feels like 53ºC". Don't quite believe that. So I'll plug in the dew point (23ºC) instead. Yes, a more reasonable "feels like 41ºC".

41ºC is the more reasonable calculation. And yet we're going to an outdoor event.

The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips and walk out the door and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.
