It's the hottest day I've ever lived through in Berlin, the asphalt is melting, my phone is peeling, and yes, I'm recording this with no clothes on. Why does EasyJet make you choose your level of suffering to board a plane? How do you cut a $15M worm program and end up paying a billion? And how exactly do you paint a national monument's pool, drive your car through it, and turn the whole thing green? Vaccines, mosquitoes that now love your repellent, and the unluckiest plane full of parachute instructors. Stay hydrated.
