But seriously though, through last night we were averaging 75.7 degrees. In St. Louis. In July. Maybe global warming isn't so bad after all.

Seattle, meanwhile, just experienced the hottest day and (week) in the city's history, a humid 104-degree scorcher that had ex-pats comparing it to the summer weather in these parts. Not sure how Seattle and St. Louis traded summer weather, but here's guessing former Mariners GM Bill Bavasi was involved. Too bad we couldn't get them to throw Ichiro into the deal too.
