I wonder what it is like to live in a desert.  Must be really hot.
yes but ocassionally rain can downpour and lead to flash floods, in that situation you may become cold especially if its wet and windy!
Interesting.  Do you know what the average temperatures are like in the Southwestern US.
i do not but i do know about one third of the land surface is arid or semi arid so we live in a very dry world in some parts!
The dry conditions must be really hard on your skin.  
yes especially since wind blown sand grains striking any object can abrade a surface. over time that can damage your skin if you continue to get hit by sandy wind. like exfoliation you never asked for.
So true.  I don't think I want that treatment, lol
polar regions where theres little rain are sometimes called polar deserts or cold deserts. many people find that interesting myself included
Very interesting.
the temperature that prevails, by the causes of desertification or by their geographical location.
Deserts are formed by weathering processes as large variations in temperature between day and night put strains on the rocks which consequently break in pieces. Although rain seldom occurs in deserts, there are occasional downpours that can result in flash floods. Rain falling on hot rocks can cause them to shatter and the resulting fragments and rubble strewn over the desert floor are further eroded by the wind. This picks up particles of sand and dust and wafts them
and I say, 'What in the world came over us,' you know? But death had nothing to do with what we were doing. If somebody shot us we would be dead. And when people died, we cried. And we went to funerals. And we went and did the next thing the next day, because it was really beyond life and death. It was really like...
