Just a couple of questions before a SD County Wildfires update...

First, why does David Gest have to sue Liza? I mean, won't he get at least half of everything she has in the divorce? and this is not a question, just a comment, on the Slick lies about Tony Blair-how stupid was he to make that comment about Tony having a problem and not taking care of it?

The fires continue to rage here in SD County and the Air Quality is the worst it has ever been. Very bad and health authorities tell us that it will be at least a week after the skies are cleared before our bodies will be back to normal.

Today our hearts are pulled toward Julian, a quaint mountain town about an hour from San Diego in the mountains...a very old former gold panning town now famous for its apples and antiques. All buildings are wood and very old and the fire is heading for the town. There are a wall of firetrucks and firefighters lining the town and prepared to douse it if the flames get there.

Over 1000 homes have been destroyed and that count will go way up today. Two big fires are heading toward each other and if they merge, well I won't speculate about that. Am learning much about fires - our firefighters are doing their best, fighting fire with fire, using helocoptors and all sorts of modern equipment and zillions of manpower, but in the end, Nature is in Control...It is humbling...

A tattered U.S. flag is about all that is left of this destroyed home in Crest, Calif., a rural community east of San Diego, early Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2003, after the area was hard hit by a wildfire Sunday. (AP Photo/Jack Smith)
