How to Cool Yourself, the Primitive Way
Tuesday, November 10th, 2009As the weather heats up to a fever pitch, there are some ways to keep the heat off and stay cool as a cucumber would be. We have segregated the ones that we have employed and are currently utilizing at this very instant to keep cool in a non-air con situation.
- Just add water. The relief is almost immediate, and will last for up to one hour or more.
- Ball up and soak a t-shirt in the sink, wring it out, put it on and sit in a lawn chair (or other chair that lets air through to you) in front of a fan. Re-wet as it dries. Make sure not to soak it with cold water. It can be colder than you think. Instead use lukewarm water so you get cool without freezing. Using a synthetic shirt will ensure no "wet T-shirt" look.
