Today in Adelaide it was 44 degrees Celsius, the hottest day for 21 years. We are in the middle of the Tour Down Under, where the European riders have come from one of the coldest winters in years. They are doing well though.
My day in the heat was an outdoor gig at the Tour Down Under playing with the band big shed.
Shocker of a day, but fortunately we were at Snapper Point, south of Adelaide, where for the whole day there was only an hour without an offshore breeze. Still stinking though.

The Lost Cosmonauts: "One day in early 1961, weeks before Yuri Gagarin's epic space flight, instead of the usual beeping tones which they had become accustomed to hear, they were startled by a sound which signaled a new chapter in the history of mankind: there, in the listening center of "Torre Bert", these two young students heard, clearly and unequivocally, the beat of a failing heart and the last gasping breaths of a dying cosmonaut."

Read the comments on this one. There is a fairly confident rebuttal.
