hooooooooooooot :(

you know its too hot when items like "the personal cooling system version 2.0" start to sound appealing to me as i watch late night tv.


"When it's blazingly hot, don't you dread leaving the air-conditioned comfort of your home? Maybe you've tried an ice-soaked towel around your neck — but that's nothing compared to the long-lasting, total-body comfort of our Personal Cooling System™. It's the best way to stay comfortable — and avoid heat stress — when walking, mowing, gardening, watching sports or concerts — just about any activity, anywhere.

Our wearable invention houses a patented, miniature evaporative-cooling system. Just fill with a few ounces of water, place around your neck and switch it on: A quiet motor drives a tiny fan that creates evaporative cooling; flexible sides hold aluminum cooling plates against your neck — and your entire body enjoys up to four hours of relief. What's more, the fan inside adds even more cooling by directing a gentle breeze over the back of your neck. Comes with 2-oz. water bottle for on-the-go refilling.

It's trim and lightweight: the sleek body weighs just 10 oz. empty; 14 oz. filled. Runs on one AA battery (order separately). One-year warranty. Select silver or cobalt blue. Created by Sharper Image Design®."

yeah....THAT has started to sound like a good idea....
be worried for me.
