“I am appreciating the air conditioning inside New York’s Ed Sullivan Theater during this heatwave. But the New York heat pales in comparison with the record-high temperatures gripping the Pacific north-west: Portland hit 116 degrees on Tuesday, which I believe means Portland is medium rare. Meaning it’s safe to eat.” —Stephen Colbert
“The temperature in Portland was so extreme that it melted power cables, shutting down the city’s streetcars. Passengers were then forced to walk, which I will remind you is only twice as fast as riding a streetcar.” —Stephen Colbert
“The heat has caused roads throughout the Pacific north-west to buckle and crack and of course the two sweatiest parts of the street are the buckle and the crack.” —Stephen Colbert

“A magisterial collection. A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night
of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
