Palisades fire

You know how in high school there’s already a few who are 35 year old men. That’s how he was. Physically so far ahead. Faster than shit. Mean. And there was never any question about college. He wasn’t goin. So the teachers were always sort of afraid of him
We had a guy like that. Mention his name to anyone in our age group and we all shudder.

No teacher ever f'd with him.

You can't pull this off?

I guarantee the only squat that guy has done is on the toilet
 
This thing is moving fast. Just broke out this morning, and already 30K people evacuated and portions of LA are burning to the ground. Watching updates on NewsNation, which doesn't really fall into hyperbole, and it looks like a legit disaster.
It’s Newsom’s fault. Look into his relationships with PG&E, SCE, and the California Public Utilities Commission, it’s not pretty, not pretty at all.

Why don’t the electrical companies take care of their infrastructure? Because they don’t have to. For the answer, you’d have to ask Newsom about their zero liability policy, given to them for campaign contributions. PG&E was found guilty for the start of the Camp Fire that killed 85 people in 2018 - 16 felonies, admitted guiltiness on 85 counts. Where are they today? 24.4 billion revenue last year.

Also, look into the State’s plans for deforestation…uh, there are none.

Also, look into the water policies…billions of gallons diverted out to the ocean due to fish mattering more than humans. Ask the farmers in California where the water is.

Add to all of this the state regulations that just forced the fire insurance companies out of the state. AYKM

I realize you don’t know much about this. I lived in LA County for 4 years so it’s kind of a sensitive subject for me. Plus, one of my best friends was the Captain of a Fire Station in Ventura County. What happened in ‘18 got my attention. The Camp Fire was the worst ever for the State at the time.


In 2018 it got my attention. Wildfires were new to me, being from the Midwest, but I learned quickly how little I knew. I almost got caught on i10 on the way home from work due to a fire. They spread so quickly during the Santa Ana winds.


In the Fall of ‘20 when the Bobcat Fire was moving it came over the San Gabriel Mountains. We were living outside of Pasadena and thought we would be evacuated but the fire was put out hours before. Our condo windows were full of black powder.

A lot needs to be done, but the people in power are not the ones that will. It’s sad because of the great people and it’s such an amazing area to see this happen to. I have tons of friends out there and it hurts to see them go through this.

Pretty cool.
My son, after meeting a Pepperdine admissions officer in Yosemite on his 16th birthday, decided he wanted to go there. This was 2011 and tuition was ~60k then. When I asked what he wanted to study, he shrugged and said I haven't figured that out yet, but I'll figure it when I get there...

Let's figure it out in-state.

I think you should encourage him to go to grad school at Pepeperdine - on his dime.

I have a Filson tin cloth canvas bag that I’ll be cremated with. It’s the greatest bag I’ve ever owned.

Edit and my guy is rocking dark jeans with brown shoes.

They aren't jeans, they're flat front chinos. You can see the side stitching of the pockets above the hand holding the bag.

Those aren't shoes, they're boots moc-toed boots. Maybe Frye's.

I can't tell re the pant color. Black chinos aren't too common. The suit above most definitely is not.
