Default AC always on!!! and I over-heat?

This is weird, after I drive my car for a while, I pop the hood and the AC is ice cold, sometimes even the lines are dripping wet with water. When I put the AC on, it's nice adn cold, but when I turn the AC on, I notice no change in engine sound or RPM's on the tach, nothing. All my other cars at least sound different or RPM's change when the AC is on, but not the LS1??? This just started about 2 weeks back, any?ideas on what this is?

Is there a fuse or something I could pull that would stop the AC from running?

Yes there is a fuse for the A/C clutch, sounds like you may have a bad switch in the car, when you turn the HVAC controls to off, does the blower motor stop? The lines should not be cold when you have the A/C off.
edit: Turn the HVAC off and pop the hood and see if your A/C clutch is still running.
