Scary forest fires

Scary stuff: there's a huge forest fire (1,200 acres last I heard) in the Angeles National Forest. The smoke is filling the sky over this part of So Cal, and the billows were coming from behind the mountains as I left for work this morning.

This evening I could clearly see the flames cresting the hills, probably 10-15 miles from my house. It looks like hell, literally, in the telescope.

Earthquakes, drought, fire; Southern California's getting to be a real fun place to live. Next it'll be locusts and frogs.


Sand

Get out there, dude. Beat the rush.

You could live with me for a few days/weeks. We don't have trees, or forests, or anything that burns. We have sand. Lots of sand.

Plus, I have a script I need some input on, and a fridge full of beer and a cabinet full of whiskey ... Granted, the script may never get finished, but it's not like we'll remember ... or care.
