I lived in Texas for years and it gets hot.

But Phoenix is HOT. There is no comparison.

Elmer, why did you decide to live in Arizona?

I remember the first time I flew into Phoenix. When I stepped outside of the airport, I felt like I was standing in the exhaust of a bus. Then an actual bus came by. OMG, it was like standing in an oven.

The cold water faucet in the hotel had warm water coming out of it, but thank God for the ice machine there.

I took an apple to work with me, but forgot to eat it. Instead I left it in the rental car, which I parked out in the sun since there were no spaces left in the covered parking garage. After work, I returned to my car and the apple literally turned into a baked apple. Might have been delicious if I dared to eat it.

I've been through Phoenix in the summer many times. It IS hot as hell there, but not humid. One flight I had a long layover and thought I'd check out Phoenix. I left the airport, intending to walk around - but it was 115! The airport bar proved more comfortable.
