Hope none of our community come from near where the fires are.

If so I hope all are alright.

I know several years ago Underdog lost his home to a fire but I thought he was/is from Midwest USA.

The only person who mentioned the US west coast was Dameon who was teaching over there somewhere (I Think)

Yup, Nick lives (lived?) there and he had some sort of involvement in a wilderness education program for kids. That might not be good with the current situation in mind :?

I am relatively certain that Nick was farther North in California.
For some reason I think he was North of San Francisco, The fires are all in the San Diego area which is about as far South as you can get.
There's no need to fear...........

One of my soldiers is from southern Cali, and his family and many of his high school buddies are firefighters. So he's having a rough time right now. I think they should deploy the Terminator with twin water cannons.

Naah, they're just lazy. Swedish firefighters would have put that fire out by noon the day it started. *ducks and runs for cover*

I just realized that a few of you may not get that joke.

Arnold "The Terminator" Schwarzenegger is the Governor of California.

Alright, joke explained.

Don't worry TBert, I think that was pretty big news worldwide. Was in the UK anyway.
