I hope it stays far from you, and that it's quickly controlled.

Our house? so not in harm's way. There's no brush near us. The fire itself is probably 3 or 5 miles away. But thank you for thought.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

3 miles really isn't very far, although the lack of brush is good.

I had Ethiopian food and now have to go to bed, but there's Homicide! On my TV!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Is it already time for fire season? Because I thought we were still in dry season and had a while to go before flood season started.

Can you wear white in fire season?

Can you wear white in fire season?

Only after Labor Day.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Melbourne, thanks for asking!

Ok, then thoughts on the following letter sent to a homemaker's advice column:

"How do you remove an awful smell out of your microwave? I found a dead starfish on the beach and brought it home. It was very wet and I thought placing it in the microwave for a few minutes would help. The starfish exploded on my second attempt to dry it."

The question is, should all starfish be required to carry a warning label, "DO NOT HEAT IN MICROWAVE"?

The warning labels would only be necessary in the litigious US.

Though now I'm wondering why it exploded? Is it because of the exoskeleton? like the shell on an egg if you microwave it?
