Consider the goat gotten

The Panhandle cements its reputation amongst people that really know as the best
place to live in Oklahoma with a lovely day in the 60s.



And while it certainly feels better in much of the state than it has in weeks, it
is still tough to see heat indices approaching 100 degrees again while the lucky
Devils (the Texhoma variety) in the Panhandle are basking in fall-like
temperatures.



Plus there is some strange substance falling from the sky in great quantities
in that area. Local legend has it that the stuff is called "rain".



Don't give up, there's still hope! Then it's back to the Easy Bake Oven.
