Find some different fish to go for, there has to be something open.

PAN, you think that is bad try living in kuwait or Iraq for a couple months.  Yes it is dry heat for the most part until you get back on the boat in the Northern Arabian Gulf, then it is 98 percent humidity all day every day.  with the temps being in the 110's.  On land it is 120's and on flight lines it is 140's.  Wearing full gear and longs sleeves and pants.  The gear tends to weigh upwards or 75 pounds at least.  Along with the scorpions and camel spiders, terantualas and dung beetles and some big, huge flies.  But I've been to Florida and even lived there for a few months and it is rather uncomfortable at times.
When an Army captain asked him for the direction of the line of retreat, Col Puller called his Tank Commander, gave them the Army position, and ordered: "If they start to pull back from that line, even one foot, I want you to open fire on them."
Turning to the captain, he replied "Does that answer your question?
We're here to fight."
