If 'fire' was an actual season where I lived, I'd move. Food for thought.

"construction" is a season here in Idaho. Asphalt is the state mineral.Solid State said:
We used to have two seasons here.. "Road Construction" and "Winter".. They decided to combine them for a year round "Road Construction" season.
I really think they just have an excess of those ugly orange barrels, so they need to store them on the side of the road. I rarely ever see an actual person, doing actual work near one.

Bring on some road construction! Our roads suck so bad! The governer just gave $30 million for two low water dams on the Arkansas River. 20 years ago, they tore one out because of the number of drownings. I really don't think people have become better swimmers in that time frame, just more quad riders. The city of Tulsa is spending in excess of $50 million for a "areana" and NO parking. Not to mention the the fact that all of the streets and highways leading to it, SUCK!IndyMX said:

Isn't fire season early this year? Al Gore did that too! So how is the recycled sewer water doing? And I am still horrified at the pics of the new matrimonial events out that way. California wtf!

Fire season comes and goes when it feels like it. Even algore can't control that. :whoa:
The recycled sewer water, :yikes: that's an Orange county thing. Can't believe there hasn't been more outrage about that. I'm in Riverside county, a more conservative area of So Cal, plus I'm on my own well water. :nod:
The matrimonial issue is also a Hollyweird and San Francisco thing. I don't give a crap about what those folks want to do behind closed doors. What bothers me is the fact that some pompous-ass federal judge decided that over sixty percent of the population was wrong when they voted against the measure. Whatever happened to "by the people, for the people.?" To me, self serving, pompous-ass federal judges are more of a danger to our way of life than gay people.
I gotta admit California is a pretty wacky place and a lot of it depends on where in California you live. On the plus side, it's not Indiana. :fft: :rotfl:

:yikes: Haha that means someone's drinking my poop, right?
I will take mine through the good old Lake Michigan. Good enough for aquqfina. No way I would feel good about some bozo at the mixing controls in Orange County! Is that where the poison tomatoes came from? Sure seems Al Gore had some green influence there. Hello, there is an Ocean next door. Can we say reverse osmosis? No way, let them suck poop! And I seen a picture of Al with the torch, he did it!
I live in Nor cal and the smoke is so bad right now you can see it hang in the air 5 feet in front of you. Pretty bad.. I drove back from Portland on Sunday and thought the world was coming to an end. You cant see anything over about a quarter mile away.. The county I live in is noted for having really good air quality. best in the state like 10 years running. Oh well there goes that right out the window. LOL......................Red
So the L.A. smog issue has taken over the whole state? No offense to you and yours, but too bad it can not be all concentrated on San Fran and its indigenous species!

I will bash the sewage drinkers, until I am the last one left. Using that nasty swill has always been good in the garden, sometimes too hot! The guys out west, well, if it rained, 20 percent of Southern California would wash into the ocean. My labor and your money, I am pretty sure I could erect a fire proof dwelling, and garage! Kick back and view the carnage from your very own naked room. Well anyway, I truly hope you guys do not come close to the fires path, Good Luck!
