Summer has struck with a vengeance here in the
District They Call Columbia. All this week the combination of temperatures in
the 90s and humidity through the roof have given us a heat index north of 100
degrees. We’ve had heat advisories every day since Monday.
Tuesday afternoon when I got into a Metro car I
at first thought they had the heat on. It was like a convection oven. I got out
at the first stop and moved to another car. That one was marginally better—AC struggled
to make headway, but at least I didn’t feel like there was a good possibility I’d
be fork-tender by the end of my 50-minute ride.
As I reached my destination, I was struck by
this poster:
Apparently professional bull riding is a thing,
and it’s coming to the area next month.
Interesting advertising, though. I suppose it
appeals to their target demographic.
