2353...You Think It Is Hot In Ottawa

Tronna.

Montreal.

Fergetaboutit.

Nobody be burning their feets walking down the road that is for sure.

Perhaps it is coz it ain't that hot; perhaps it is coz we are collectively smarter than 78 year old Jonathan Jacobs of Phoenix, Arizona. KPHO.com, CBS 5 in Phoenix, tells the story of Mr. Jacobs who went for a walk in his neighborhood to talk to his mail carrier.

Barefooting he was.

Mr. Jacobs, a keen observer of his person, noticed his feet had become hot and jumped into a grassy area before continuing to walk home. By the time he reached his home his feet were badly blistered and burned. Phoenix Fire transported the man to the Arizona Burn Center at Maricopa Medical Center for treatment.

The day Mr. Jacobs burned himself it was a balmy 97 degrees F in Phoenix; but a dry 97 degrees F.
