"You know you're in an Australian Summer when..."
The best parking place is determined by shade
instead of distance.
Hot water now comes out of both taps.
You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty
good branding iron.
The temperature drops below 35C (92F) and you
feel a little chilly.
You discover that in February it only takes 2 fingers
to steer your car.
You discover that you can get sunburned through
your car window.
You develop a fear of metal car door handles.
You break a sweat the instant you step outside
at 7:30 a.m.
Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get
knocked out and end up lying on the pavement
and cook to death?"
You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.
Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice
to keep them from laying hard-boiled eggs.
The cows are giving evaporated milk.
The trees are whistling for the dogs.
