Where can I buy a cutting edge heat shield? It’s 111 degrees here right now.

Yeah, 111, under an umbrella, feels like 109. Better.

I bet if they combined those as “seen on TV” tactical sunglasses with a couple gallons of Flex Seal, that oughta get her.

Add a Ron Popeil rotisserie with a chicken inside and it will be perfectly browned by the natural heat from the sun for the perfect backyard BBQ when returning to earth.

Some like it hot, and some sweat when the heat is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can’t go on
Some like it hot, but you can’t tell how hot till you try
Some like it hot, so let’s turn up the heat till we fry
