So I run over to the hangar yesterday to pick up some stuff for the
hotel, and I hear an airplane go over. I look up to see "The Mighty
150" struggling to climb in the thick, humid summer air.
Actually, the hot & humid air is thin...
You guys kill me....
We all know that humid air FEELS thick. I went running this morning
with my son, and felt like I was breathing through a wet sponge. The
air felt like if we added .000001% more humidity, we'd be under
water.
THAT feels "thick" -- thus the literary turn of phrase.
