    Bet They Are Celebrating at State Farm Insurance

    Agree, but don't leave out the environmentalist. Many believe they have a duty to protect the rare or endangered butterfly, birds and plants that are native to this area. Laguna Beach California 1993 (Laguna Canyon Fire) was a fire that burned over 16,000 acres and destroyed over 450 homes and...

    Gun safes: opinions and advice needed…

    I too am looking for a new, bigger safe. Leaning toward a Liberty as I am satisfied with the one I have now except for the lock. My new one will be a mechanical lock, I have spent too much time replacing batteries before I can get inside. Also, I expect there will be many, many stories, good...

    California Fires-Cause?

    Yes, there are inmate hand crews being used to fight these fires but are available for other natural disasters. These groups are commonly known as fire camp crews, several states have them. The program is run by California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitations (CDCR), CAL FIRE and...

    California Fires-Cause?

    My bet is a 'homeless fire', before political correctness they were called 'hobo fires'. There are several encampments located out of the way in these hills and brush areas; few if any are being careful when making camp fires. According to LAFD data in a May 2024 report, there were 13,909...

    That would lead to Ghost Drones. Would batteries be considered, "drone precursor parts"?

    Carson quip validated

    One thing that seems to missing in all of the many news conferences is the cause of these fires. The few times it is mentioned the response is, "it is under investigation". My bet is a 'homeless fire', before political correctness the were called 'hobo fires'. There are several encampments...

    Bet They Are Celebrating at State Farm Insurance

    Forecasts are indicating more Santa Ana winds coming next week. Not sure if they will be like the 80-100 mph ones we just had, but the 20-30 mph ones are almost as bad.

    Man ditches underwear after setting himself alight in bungled arson attack

    As may be. However, you have to admit that this is beyond funny and worthy of a segment on the TV program Ridiculousness.

    Idiot with drone damages water bomber

    The current laws in California foster a no penalty, rules don't apply to me mentality. The current catch and release actions of our courts for many, many crimes also don't help. Hopefully, the pendulum is swinging back These drone flyers need to be caught, charged and sent to federal prison...

    Bet They Are Celebrating at State Farm Insurance

    The Insurance companies have to make a decision as to their risk reward, as mentioned, they are a business. Currently, they are in a state wide wee-wee match with the Insurance Commissioner as to their current rating structure. My homeowners insurance is with State Farm and I guess they feel...

    CAN YOU READ?

    Yes, they can read. Yes, they don't care. Don't get the BP up; just close (or slam) the door. Some truth about this: They are usually exploited people that are trying to make a sale so they can get a commission and their bosses can make a buck. Their bosses don't care about anything, or any...

    Can't we just ENFORCE the law?!?

    I expressed a similar opinion to a County ADA about sentencing. He explained that the defendant, while an acknowledged career criminal, knew as much (or more) about the State Laws dealing with his particular criminal specialty than most Lawyers. It was a dance between the DA's office and the...

    My Granddaughter just had open heart surgery (age 32) and she was shocked when they used superglued to close. Now, she is happy they did, there is almost no scar. She thinks she can break out the 2 piece swim suit this summer.

    Which anti virus software do you use if you use WIN10 on a PC

    During the Symposium in Phoenix I purchased a laptop with Windows 11 installed. I returned it two days later; kids with crayons and marketing people doing user interface killed MS products for me. I'm learning to use Linux Desktop.
