In any other world, the devastion from the fires there would be a top story.

600 structures are gone.  Fortunately, evacuations were mandated and loss of life may be minimal.

Single digit humidity, 35 mph wnds, and baking sun set up the firestorm. 10,000 are without power as the grid is shut down for prevention.

Thoughts and Prayers 

The fires are global.  Nobody thinks about it.
 
I could not imagine my home being ashes.

When you pile flammable material against the sides of your house and it burns down, how can you be surprised?

That's why California pays for metal roofs and has policy to try and mitigate risk.  We went through brown outs out there on high fire risk days out there.
You do know PG+E's electrical failures have caused large fires out there?

When you see the nuclear fireball I hope you ask yourself why you voted for stupid and what you expected. You should study a concept called risk mitigation.. 

I heard one house was saved by putting a yard sprinkler on the roof.

C'mon man... A river runs through it..  35 MPH winds helped the flames jump over it..


Trump banned Roombas  and a bunch of chinese robotics..  

You should get a self driving truck that can deploy a few of these..  You could cut the grass from JD Vances couch..

Havoc in the electrical biz.. China makes a whole bunch of the Gozinta.. 
I'm out.. Headed into town to buy a box of Dunkin' donuts and give a good morning at the new job.
Stay in the lane.. I can't cut areas twice this time.

We both should have more to do than this place.  You won't miss me much..  If nothing else, I can stay abut 99% Social Media Free wth a desk and purpose.  Mrs is super glad I'll be gone all day.ECOVACS Goat O1000 LiDAR PRO Robot Lawn Mower, Wire-Free Mapping with LiDAR Navigation, AI Obstacle Avoidance, Smart Edge Mowing, App Control, for Lawns Up to 1/4 Acre

If you haven't noticed, it could be the next pandemic..

95 getting pumped up with lanes north and south of Fayetteville.  Joe did pass a bipartisan bill.  It looked like it was going very slowly.  Money must have gotten clawed back for ICE goons.  Gosh I am glad they climbed back in their hole..

Repent or Stay Bent.

There are crucial steps to solving a problem. Sulking and just accepting it isnt one of them.

You should see who Todd Achilles is in wait for it..  Idaho...

California‘s electric grid has needed upgrading for decades…their energy commission is to blame…

I believe PG&E has paid some pretty big settlements.

It is hard to bury cable in much of California.  Costly to get through the rock.

If you are going to complain about inadequate government.. I suggest you leard the difference between Iran and Vietnam.

I am greatful to hear that.

It was disturbing we had two tornados here with zero warning.  

It sounds like they got the word out there.  Fingers crossed it's not a Lahaina.

I have been in some wicked hot weather there.

It useed to be food collections and help started getting mobilized.  Now it doesn't even get on Google News. Notice who is stone cold quiet about it.
 
 Chad Williams sounds like he is already buried next to Thomas Crooks.
