Grew up without any air conditioning at all.

We owned a home that had apartments on the second and third floors. A very nice teacher lived on the third floor, and when he would go on vacation, he would let me and my buddy stay up there.

Must have been 110 degrees in that apartment in the summer. An "adventure" type of thing for young guys having a sleepover. Not quite sure how the tenant, or me and my buddy, managed it.
