    I agree with opening day Carnage. As far as Vegas heat? It is mild compared to the 90% humidity I have dealt with in Memphis. I LOVE Vegas weather. Love the desert, love the mining industry, minerals, big beautiful rattlesnakes and coyotes. Indian camps and stars like i have never seen before. Vegas truly is as close to heaven as I can imagine.

    You will grow to miss the humidity. Dry heat is not not what they claim. 117 dry heat? Your oatmeal cookies are ready to come out.

    The desert is something else. Amazing that anything could live out there.

    I won't tire of it. I have several mining clients in the Eldorado Valley.i get out 5- 25 miles away from anything civilization oriented. I know how hot it is, but never, ever, will I miss humidity.

    But the Italians claim it since Christopher Columbus was Italian.😁

    Recently a British soldier on patrol had something very similar and was confronted by 2 - 3 ISIS.

    The Brit walked away.

    Dude, Memphis is hotter than Vegas. I have been in the desert, miles out.......... I will take it ANY DAY versus Memphis heat. Until you experience summer in Memphis, you have no idea what uncomfortable weather is. #1 place in America for respiratory problems. Bad air, morbid humidity, total lack of winds................... I have been to the Middle East...........Memphis is worse.

    I would have never guessed that. Interesting stuff.

    Well if your team or my team is not in the competition you still want to have some sort of rooting interest in one of the teams that is in there. So for Americans since the USA is not in the tournament we need a rooting interest and why not Iceland.

    And why not the country whence came the first discoverers of the continent you are in? 

    SPAIN! 😉

    And before you mention the Vikings, they FOUND America but didn't DISCOVER it. Think about the verb discover: dis-cover. They didn't know they had found another continent and the rest of the world didn't take notice till centuries later.

    What?  The Vikings discovered America period. North America to be specific. 

    "They didn't know they found another continent" ?  What are you talking about?

    I'm not opening the link, but what I mean is that they FOUND America. But it's like when you meet a place and don't tell anyone. Or when someone finds something in an area (Physics, Medicine). You don't DIS-COVER it until you tell the world.

    Italy became a unified nation in 1861.

    Garibaldi was such a highly-regarded general that President Lincoln asked him to be a general in Union Army when the American Civil War broke out months later. Garibaldi said he would, under two conditions:

    1. He had to be named head of the Union forces

    2. Lincoln had to immediately end slavery

    Lincoln would have agreed to #1, but not #2 because he didn't want border states to join the Confederacy. Garibaldi refused the offer because he would only fight for the U.S. if it was for a noble cause. Keeping the Union intact was not enough for Garibaldi. When Lincoln two years later signed the Emancipation Proclamation, Garibaldi sent Lincoln a letter telling him that now the war was a noble cause, now the deaths of thousands of men meant something, and that Lincoln will forever go down in history as a righteous man.

    Not to add that blacks are shooting up everything at one of the worst crime and murder rates in America. Memphis is an unwiped assshole.
