I live in Florida, have all my life. The only time I had an a/c unit was a couple years back in the dorm. Wanna know how to beat the heat?

Acclimate your bloody self.

Drink plenty of water, eat plenty of light foods, wear light weight light colored clothing, keep something moist and cool on your head at all time, wear less clothing, and get out and sweat. Spend more time outdoors in the shade, or the sun if you take care of yourself, drink plenty of water, and have plenty of air flow.

Sedentary air, dead air; sedentary person, dead person.

And yes, I know the value of an a/c unit. Those of you who complain about not having any other option than one, bully for you. Do what you have to do to endure. But again, the key is less to do with the amount of refrigerant cooled air and more the actual fact that air is moving.

I live within spitting distance of Mobile and can say that I've seen and eaten this same salad with almost every type of whitefish we can get our hands on; either out of laziness or finances. Also, similar to jayceetoo's pate, I've baked it the middle of rolls before.
