Conservation is for the little people.

People with money can live any way they want. All I ask is that they not lecture me on how I need to live like a dusty peasant in order not to “hurt the erf”.

Be nice. Water conservation is for the little people. We cannot expect special people to be inconvenienced.

According to a friend in the water business, a call for conservation will result in increased consumption on the part of the uber-rich.

I would like to ask those water critics if they ever drive somewhere just for entertainment. If so they are wasting gasoline or the fuel to make electricity and they are polluting the atmosphere. So what’s the difference between them wasting resources and anyone else wasting resources? We all waste to a certain extent so people who live in glass houses.......

“Kim(Kardashian) takes this drought seriously and has made some amendments to the property. She has no problem letting her grass go brown.”

Uh, yeah, sure...okay.

Wanna buy a bridge in New York?

That stupid twit doesn't have the mental acuity of a roundworm, much less the environmental awareness to understand what a drought is.

People that are famous just for being famous are disgusting.

Southern California, which has virtually NO water of it’s own, has always said FU to the rest of the state (from whence it gets most of it’s water). During the last severe drought (1977), SoCal folks were letting their sprinklers run in the streets while those of us up north were using water from our bathtubs to flush our toilets. Southern California is your quintessential “We Don’t Give a $hit For Anyone but Ourselves” place. Wonder what they are going to do when we tell them the water’s gone, all of it. Even now, Brown is dusting off his newest version of the Peripheral Canal ( now he’s going to try tunnels) to take more water for So Cal at the expense of San Francisco Bay and the Delta. Probably resurrecting the San Luis Drain will be next so they can drain the polluted water from the Kesterson Wild Life Preserve ( home of the three billed ducks with one foot) back into the Bay. Southern California should be severed from the rest of the state and handed over to Mexico.

I notice the homes aren’t any greener than those next door.

An extremely witty retired guy I know in Las Vegas has done a great job Xeriscaping his property with desert plants. Looks very cool. One day, I noticed a blue, globe-like thing amongst the cacti. I asked him about it and he smiled proudly. “That’s a bowling ball. Adds a little color, don’t you think?”

Many years ago when I lived in the Corpus Christi, TX area there was a severe drought. However, when the cities started mandating conservation there were no fines. After a certain amount of water usage they simply turned your water off and locked it.

The rich people too. So the rich brought in and paid for water truck after water truck. They had to put up huge signs stating it was purchased water and it listed the company and phone number with a note that they will sell water to anyone. They did this to prevent being fire bombed.

Most likely the Democrats in Sacramento ruining the state have declared their estates endangered species sanctuaries.

I don't know what's more depressing...

That Khloe Kardashian lives here?

Or that Justin Bieber used to.

I have never been envious of someone’s house - but HOW IN THE WORLD can they live in those atrocities?
