Tucson is home to more kinds of poisonous snakes than any place on earth. It gets over 100 degrees for 100 days a year, and it can get as hot as 117. Black widow spiders are commonly found in people's yards. Deadly scorpions invade homes at night. People have to use blacklights to find them. They especially like to crawl into shoes. Sometimes they fall off ceilings and onto one's bed. Coyotes live inside the city and eat pet cats and dogs. Blinding duststorms hit the city every summer. Drive-by shootings are common on weekends. One mother, whose son was killed on their front porch, explained that the shooters were aiming for the kid sitting next to her son. Tucson is the skin cancer capital of America. Tucson has a local disease known as \"Valley Fever\" which rots one's lungs. It is the crime of \"reckless endangerment\" to drive into a flooded wash in Tucson. They bill you for your rescue. Mosquitoes carrying dengue fever breed year round in Tucson. The average job in Tucson pays a little more than minimum wage. The city's economy is based on golf. The city pumps groundwater from beneath the urban area, which threatens land subsidence...meaning giant cracks will someday open up and swallow whole buildings.[/b] tucson arizona... my little slice of heaven.

Take some chloroform, you'll feel better. Are you one of those people who burst into flames when the sun touches your skin? I'm lucky, I just look at the sun and my whole body turns a magnificent shade of bonze (I haven't gotten much sun this summer so I'm fairly pasty right now)

no i just worked a 10 hour day on monday... then a 11 hour day on tuesday... all of which was in the sun... i guess sun screen wears off after a while.

Sun screen apparantly can increase your risk of getting cancer... That's like giving somebody painkillers and then kicking 'em in the nuts.

Ha, yeah, you gotta keep reapplying sunscreen every couple of hours. I have yet to get burned this summer.. nice and tan. Whoo! Anyway, yeah uh, use that sunscreen! I hope you heal quickly, I know how painful that is!
