Glad to see we made something besides the number #1 spot.

Hot time, summer in the city, back of my neck gettin' dirty and gritty.

Clearly the only reason that Atlanta is so far down is because everyone there is sitting inside an air-conditioned car instead of (*gasp*) walking anywhere!

Brings to mind a question: whats the best anti-perspirant/deodorant?

If Secret, Dove and Degree aren't working for ya what do you use? I'm asking for sam b/c she has summer gym now and so far the ones mentioned aren't controlling the perspiration.

This is next to try:

Mr. JR attended a wedding with me in my hometown in south ALA about 20 years ago in July. He still says to this day, that was the HOTTEST he has ever been in his entire life. Hot and humid (as in sweaty). It was sweltering. :shock:

Nobody will ever convince me that Houston is not the sweatiest, muggiest city in this country and probably gives Ho Chi Minh City a run for the sweatiest on Earth!

Been to Houston, Been to Nola and I still think Memphis is worse. We get no breeze at all.

Secret Clinical was no better for me than Degree--it just costs twice as much and leaves white residue on my clothes.

I use Mitchum unscented solid for men. It's the only thing that works these days. (The gel will work, too, but I don't like gooey stuff in my armpits, which is why I use antiperspirant in the first place.)
