Rich people have carbon footprints dozens of times greater than the average “deplorable”.

If they want to save the planet they need to take their carbon footprint to zero.

Excellent writing.

I liked the funny flashbacks and the Teamocil song.

I didn't just HEAR of them. I've lived them since 1973. It's a regular 10 to 15 year cycle, over and over and over.

John Steinbeck wrote about it in "To A God Unknown." An extended New England family arrives in California around the 1880s or maybe 1890s and prospers enormously because the torrential rains made everything grow. Their crops and herds grew and grew and they got rich. Then the drought years hit a few years later, ruined everything they had built, and the family fell apart.

It's a common tale where people emigrate to California thinking the climate will be like what they knew at home in the East, but then reality intrudes. People learn that most years you get decent rain November to April, some years it is torrential from October to May, and in many years there's hardly any rainfall in the fall, winter or spring.

Since I arrived in CA in 1973, I've seen four or five epic CA rainy seasons like 2022-2023. Younger people without much life experience always think they are the first to experience California dry years or epic wet years.

Run in circles scream and shout stuff.

Weren’t these people whining about a drought and wildfires a couple of years ago? California has 2 cycles... Rain... And drought... Followed by rain... And drought, etc., etc. That’s been California for the past millennium and longer.

People didn’t go to California to grow crops... They went there for the Gold and ended up growing crops because the weather was awesome... Until it wasn’t... And then it was awesome again... Until it wasn’t. Then they figured out a fantastic new idea called ‘irrigation’. They steal the water from neighbouring states and then grow their crops.

I’m pretty sure I was skiing in Mammoth during one of those storms in ‘82. Was great. Fresh snow for days. Hardly anyone wanted to ski in that weather so no lines for the lift. I had my thermals and ski jumper and goggles of course. Had to buy one of those liquor store robbery masks but otherwise was great fun.

You cannot be a lib without being a scumbag. You cannot be a famous lib without being a hypocritical, elitist scumbag.

Ah yes. You said Donner and I knew it was familiar but couldn’t place the reference. Brain fog. Donner (dinner) party.

My impression of California is that the weather is perfect, until it’s deadly.

Yeah, that’s pretty accurate. They tell us it’s a desert, with lots of trees. So it gets dry for extended periods. Then fires burn lots of acres. Then it rains, and the ash and dirt turn to mud and rock slides because the greenery is burned away. It’s also full of big cities so the roads collect oil and dirt for a year while the drains get clogged with debris and trash. Then it rains and the roads are slick and the sewers overflow. And some of the roads aren’t designed for drainage. I was in a friend’s mid 1970’s 4x4 Toyota with large, fat tread tires yesterday hauling some cartons to an industrial park. The roads are wide but at the bottom of the hill the right lane hand 2 feet of water pooled. I really wanted to make a splash, but it wasn’t my truck and it was “clean” from the last 3 days of rai so it would’ve been rude of me to return it to the friend all splashed up.

You’re no doubt familiar with Santa Maria. In 1998, two CHP officers were killed on Hwy. 166 in the middle of the night when the road had totally washed out. The fog was thick and they couldn’t see ahead of them, plunged off the highway into the raging river. Their bodies were found the next day.

Whatever the cause if I had a pool of expensive vehicles I would be ball busting to to reposition them out of the flood area.

But you wouldn't be screaming about Global Climate Change causing the flood.

Left out of all these stories is there were never people living in the places where fires and floods happen. There should never have been houses built in many of these places for this very reason.

Yeah, EVERY STINKING LIBERAL has their huge mansions, huge automobiles, big SUV's, even private Jet aircraft. The big, one world government, liberals, fly all over the stinking world in their private jets burning millions of gallons of jet fuel, spending millions upon millions of dollars to fly to meetings in massive hotels where it costs more a night than I have made in over 50+ years of working. Those b@$t@rd$ accuse all of we little people of doing everything that they do every day!! We are blamed for what they are doing and causing. They are destroying the so-called Mother Earth they pray to. The sorry b@$t@rd$ are making it worse, with each flight and spending those millions upon millions of dollars worshipping Mamma Earth.
