So it has been hot as hell - today it is almost 80*. And the wind is blowing like (as someone said this morning ) the Santa Anta Winds, "those hot dry [winds] that come down through the mountain passes and curl your hair and make your nerves jump and your skin itch. On nights like that every booze party ends in a fight. Meek little wives feel the edge of the carving knife and study their husbands' necks. Anything can happen." (from Raymond Chandler's story Red Wind)
So watch out people - Anything can happen.

Housewives with knives
