Yet another brushfire, yet more people will lose houses, yet more people will rebuild in the same places, and not build fireproof houses.
Repeat as many times as you wish.

SNL? Sounds to me like the actual plot to Jaws 5.

I can see it now, California will sue all the sharks in the ocean for setting all the wildfires in California. sharks have to eat too. Let alone if they would do something novel out there like... trim some underbrush, or do some controlled burns now and again. But hey who has time for rational solutions.

But, on a serious note I hope the firefighters get it under control quickly and stay/keep everyone safe.

It must have been an Oriental guy the shark ate because an hour later he was hungry again.

Last round of fires down here in San Diego got me a few days off. Unfortunately for me, it was hot, and I don't have air conditioning. So I had to keep my windows open at night. I woke up every morning feeling like I smoked two packs of cigarettes for about a week.

In "Orca" from 1977, the killer whale actually starts an explosion and fire.

Fire was not set by shark. Fire was set by someone looking to move the burden of the subprime mortgage crisis onto the insurance companies.

 
Burn14Me 2008-04-27 09:03:48 PM  
were truely are fuct now.

my guess it was these guys...
users.adelphia.net

but then again, it could been started by sharks on a plane droping fire bombs...

And how do you know that?

Fjornir: Fire was not set by shark. Fire was set by someone looking to move the burden of the subprime mortgage crisis onto the insurance companies.

except that this doesn't work because the amount you get to rebuild your McMansion is a fraction of most loans. For example, my house here is (was?) valued at say 500k. Structure replacement on my fire insurance would cover 100k to rebuild house.

Math no workie...

And he would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those pesky neighbors with a paid up mortgage.

simpsonfan Yet another brushfire, yet more people will lose houses, yet more people will rebuild in the same places, and not build fireproof houses.

I live in the suburbs of SD, and most of my neighborhood was destroyed in the 2003 wildfires. All houses rebuilt were done fireproof, and most of the houses underwent fixes for the same purpose.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing twice and expecting different results. Also, don't be an ass.

If I explained that it was a joke to you then you probably wouldn't understand that either so please go DIAF.

"SIERRA MADRE, Calif. (AP) -- An early season wildfire slowly chewed its way through dense brush near Los Angeles on Sunday, forcing more than 1,000 people from homes in the foothills."


Causing dozens of unshaven bums asking if you could help a fellow American who's down on his luck.

There was nothing in the article about a shark.

I call shenanigans!

 
tahotim 2008-04-27 09:16:59 PM

That shark is just pissed because nobody ever takes him up on that "suck my dick" thing. Nobody ever said sharks were smart.

thats one cunning shark. i hope his plan works out.

/fire baaaaad!

 
Dragonblink 2008-04-27 09:39:59 PM  
I live two miles from this fire, so I'm getting a kick blah blah.

I can see the flames from my window. I should have known that dastardly shark was to blame. If anyone needs me, I'll be on my balcony with a sniper rifle watching for fins. And listening for someone demanding that I suck their dick.
