The crazy heat finally arrived here on Long Island today. I put an A/C unit in my 88 year old mom's attached apartment, but we're not so lucky in our part of the house...don't anticipate much sleeping going on here tonight. I called Zacherley today to see how he's making out in the city [where it's even worse!] and he was fine, wisely staying close by the A/C unit in his apartment. My big bonus of the day was my initial call inspired him to call me a number of times more during the day....One of the calls was to ask me if i was into comic books as a kid...specifically, Captain America. I could almost hear Zach's jaw drop when i told him; ''Hell, yeah! Joe Simon [Cap's creator] lived in my neighborhood in Woodbury NY when i was a kid!'' Anyway, one of Joe's kids asked Zach to please send Joe an autographed pic of himself, as Joe was a big fan of Zach's! He obliged and in return Joe Simon sent Zach an inscribed hardcover book about him and Jack Kirby and their impact on the comics industry. After hearing of my connection with the Simon's, Zach says he's going to send the book to me! I've always kicked myself for never getting Joe's autograph before he moved from the neighborhood when i had the chance...leave it to Zach to fulfill yet another unrealized dream for me...John Zacherle, the gift that NEVER stops giving!
If I didn't have A/C I'd be dead by now. What I didn't expect though, was that my 8 year old house (which we sold last year) would cost MORE to cool than my current home, which is 25 years old and 400 Sq Ft bigger. So much for the new "energy efficient" building codes. I'm saving about $100 per month on my electric bill.
Gary:Do you have more trees and shade now? Older areas tend to have more mature shade trees.Were your old ceilings higher? More ceiling fans in your new house? Attic fan? Whirly birds on the roof? All these things tend to make a difference.Keep cool.
