It's so hot in Phoenix, even the inmates are getting ice cream

The heat wave hammering Arizona is so scorching, it may be melting the hardest of hearts. Joe Arpaio, infamous tough-guy sheriff of Maricopa County, is distributing ice cream to inmates of his outdoor tent jail in Phoenix to help them stay cool. Weather reporters forecast 118 degrees Saturday in the city, just four pips short of the all-time record. As well as frozen treats, the felons will be given ice-water-soaked towels to help keep their body temperatures in the "survivable" range. Free cold towels and ice -cream? Uncle Joe is clearly losing his edge. [Source]
