Perhaps the heat causes stupidity.

FarmI,
you should excuse David, he's from "La-La Land" (a.k.a. Los Angeles)
and they are expecting 2 to 4 millimeters of rain on thursday. As you
might expect, panic and confusion has broken out among the
inhabitants of the region at the prospect of a day that isn't bright
and sunny. He'll settle down again, once the crisis is past ;O)

Irony of it is that it appears to be you who is experiencing the heat,
i.e., 91F (33C) in Cooma, and 81F (27C) in Sydney.

No I'm from north of Newcastle, Australia. My pasture is drying off as
there has been no useful rain for three months and I cannot irrigate 'cause
the river has stopped. Weather prediction is 40C (104F) for the weekend, I
may have to send my stock elsewhere if it doesn't rain soon. The mine down
the road wants to turn my valley into a pit and discharge dirty water into
the river, so I am a little tense. Not that that causes forgetfulness.

And did I mention that I wish I had never started this thread?
