Did it keep on raining? 'Cause the levy's gonna break.

Very Nice

/HLOTY material....

I'll have to place to stay!

NO place to stay!

Why can't they build another dam in it's place that's better at making power?

"Now, over here, these are all levees."

"At's-a the Jewish neighborhood."

"Well, we'll pass over that."

Something smells fishy

Poor Chandra.

I know he was "innocent" but it was fun rearranging his name:

GARY CONDIT =

TYING A CORD
IT GO AND CRY
DYING ACTOR
COTY IN DRAG
DRY COATING
AIN'T D.C. GORY?

I see what you did there, subby. I feel bad for giggling at it.

Chandra, when the walls fell.

My brain must be dyslexic today because I read "Condit Dam" as Condamit!

This will be the day that it dies.

So the 33M cost of demolition will be borne by the utility's subscribers?
Just like the cost of construction and maintenance for the last century?

I guess the phrase, "cost of doing business" doesn't apply to the operating business entity.

Is this a god dam?

It's funny because she was raped and murdered. Well probably raped, that's how I like to remember it.

so now life in the lake above it is distrubed.
It would be ironic in a way if a endangered species lived in the lake.

That's gonna be awesome so there had better be video or it didn't happen!

Nothing interesting yet, appears that there are two different views they are switching between. One looking at the dam, one looking downstream at the canyon.

Actually, they just panned through a couple more views - one on the top looking at the reservoir, and one looking at the face of the dam. Should have some good footage after this is all done.

You're welcome. Our office had the feed live in a conference room too (several people worked on the planning for this).

Looks like they just stopped the feed though.

Hopefully you were able to catch the blast live, the first 1/2 hour to 45 minutes were pretty cool, but the lake drained much faster than they thought it would. They blasted it at about 12:10 and by 1:00 you could see the top of the tunnel that they blasted, so the reservoir was almost completely drained. That is way, way faster than they were predicting which was about 6 hours.
