The Gig Harbor fire made the local news here.
Gah, two hours of quality time with DemonLady. I get to go home now.
Interesting. They love a good fire story, but it's interesting it would make the cut there with all the other disaster footage they could show.
Well, we've been shipping them knives, mostly Camillus BK2s and Gerber LMF II aircrew models for almost two months now. Get 'em while you're stateside is the best policy.
In deference to Ramius, here's our equivalent of the "Coulter rule":
They didn't make O-1s like that when I was in.
I'd so like to be her. :~D
Dang...
Nice, uh... weaponry. :-)
Yippee! I'm back online!
Woohoo!! Glad you didn't have to shlep back down to dial-up... :-)
Thank goodness for small favors.
I certainly didn't want to re-install AOL. :-/
Yay! Glad you didn't have to kill anyone!
Home. Izzit Friday yet?
Not yet, sis - but close.
Gotta bathe the monsters. BRB.
OK... well, if they're gonna be monsters it is better that they are *clean* monsters. :-) [sip]
That's what it is here...$2.85. I'm glad I filled up.
You know, I got to talking to Steve about the looting situation...I'm wondering if the people that are doing the looting are aware of just how nasty that water is that they're wading around in. We're talking sewer water, and more.
I bet they don't use care with where they put their hands...and do they use antibacterial hand cleanser before they eat with those hands? Or feed their children with them?
Are their tetanus shots current?
I just have a feeling that the type of people that would loot would likely not be the type of people to run down to the health department and keep their shots current...and I have a feeling that the wading around in that water is gonna catch up with them.
Disease is going to run rampant for everyone, but especially for people who aren't big on doing the right thing anyway...like getting their kids shots and such.
Somebody here at the waterin' hole just mentioned that for *some* people... the looting is *why* they stayed behind.
Sickening, but it rings true.
I think so too...
But I think it's gonna bite them on the butt, wading around in that filth.
Cholera...typhoid...tetanus...
That's what I've been saying, they're gonna be sorry in a few days when the plagues start.
You could see on TV the sewers boiling up! And photos from the air showed huge streaks of stuff coming from gas stations and such in the water.
They are clean, but they're still monsters.
Yep...no doubt we're gonna start seeing the sorts of diseases we associate with third world countries.
Not fun.
I put my old dryer out on the road and put a "FREE" sign on it...then detailed everything that was wrong with it under the word "free".
It's gone.
I pointed out tracks in the grass, tire tracks and said to Joshua "Look, see the tracks where someone came and got the old dryer?"
He said "Now you can know for sure that someone came and got it!"
Um...right! ;-)
