With soaring temperatures come soaring electric bills. Last month was one of the hottest months on record for Pike County. From June 8 to Aug. 8, there were a total of 645 hours when temperatures exceeded 90 degrees, an increase of about 275%. The average over the last 10 years is only 233 hours hotter than 90 degrees.

Telling a woman not to change the setting on a thermostat is like telling her to stop talking on the telephone. Any woman will tell you that moving the thermostat to full cold will cool the house down quicker.

Yeah, it is like asking a man to leave the tv on one channel. They think the buttons must stay activated in order to work.
