On the plus side... if you get hungry, you can go fry an egg on the hood of your car. :lol:
Tough break on the power/AC thing though. A pass through a cold shower now and then can help cool off a bit. Hope the power comes back up soon.
I still haven't had a chance to come by your shop to have you look over my old Aristocrat. I want to go over finish options and costs and just have a look at the shop and shoot the breeze if you have time. I may even bring the Mark VI to see if you think it might benefit from a little regulation here and there. I know palm E is quite flat... need to trim a bit off the felt. Odd thing is, I don't remember it being like that 30 years ago. :dontknow:
I'll give you a call when it looks like I might be able to arrange a Saturday in Shreveport.
Meanwhile, try to stay cool... spray some water on the roof of your house every once in a while too. Every pound of water (~ 8¼ gallons) removes almost 1,000 Btu. I worked in an office once, with a metal roof overhead and no insulation between roof and drop-ceiling... literally a sweat shop

We put a sprinkler on the roof and dropped the inside temp by 10°. Probably won't be as dramatic with a typical home roof w/ attic, but should still help. :dontknow:
