El Cajon still smouldering, alot of destruction there.

Oh Hildy I'm so glad that you are o.k. It's been one heck of a day.

They need to replay this interview with this State Rep and State Senator -- Davis should be tarred and feathered for not requesting this assistance when all they needed was a phone call to General Myers. Cong Hunter had given the head of CDF General Myers home phone number to call!

Cannot believe that Doofus and his people did nothing -- wanted to think about requesting help from the Air Force in Colorado.

This interview needs replayed over and over again -- they went right after Davis and his people!

[bonesmccoy]

I see... prayers for your family.

[Kahuna]

If this fire breeches the crest say goodnight. All of Lake Arrowhead will be charcoal within hours. Billions of dollars at stake hear. Hopefully the smart folks have hightailed it to Hesperia.

[bonesmccoy]

Maybe Arnold can meet with Gen. Myers when he is back in California.

Can Arnold work with the lame duck Davis and get the USAF out?

[Elliott Jackalope]

I'd love to tell you all the things Davis does, but this isn't the Penthouse forum. That guy makes the average street whore look like a paragon of virtue. His posterior is not only for sale to the highest bidder, but in all seriousness the only way he could peddle his @$$ any more aggressively would be to have a price list tattooed on his buttocks.

[hole_n_one]

I was able to see flames to my northwest at around 2:00 pm....and now the wind is blowing east. (That's not good)

[PhiKapMom]

I am in Norman, OK now but used to live in Yucaipa -- in fact the day the Government movers loaded the truck there were fires in the hills around us with ash falling everywhere -- they would run the boxes from the house/garage right into the truck to keep the ash off of them for the move across country.

I kept boxes in the one closet ready to evacuate -- nerve racking to say the least. I cannot believe people actually build back in these canyons and still have shake roofs.

Have been listening to KFI out of LA most of the day to get reports about areas where friends are still living.

[cake_crumb]

"Unbelieveable! General Myers offered use of the fire fighting win out of Colorado. Cong Hunter arranged for this to happen. The Cong gives him the home phone number of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs -- to head of CA Foresty and the moron wanted to mull over whether to call Gen Myers. Faxed a letter to the Governor to get ahold of the military to get the planes out there"

I heard that too and agree: UNBELIEVABLE! He's a real "never take charge" kinda guy!

[lainie]

What local leaders were they?

[SCalGal]

I just got a phone call asking for information...

Does anyone know anything about Lakeside? Specifically, El Monte road in the canyon, just east of Lakeside.

[PhiKapMom]

Cong Hunter is seeing what he can do by going around Doofus and his people according to what I heard. Think it is time that they go around Davis and give him the boot early. Cannot believe he and his people did this! They could have used this military aircraft during the day when the winds were lower before the fires seem to be out control tonight!

[lainie]

Maria is on channel 4 being interviewed. She looks absolutely skeletal.

[per loin]

Math check, please.

[Elliott Jackalope]

How big was the check attached to the message? WHAT! You mean there wasn't a check attached? No wonder Dufus didn't read it. Sheesh. You'd think these guys would get with the program!

[Inspectorette]

Mr. Inspectorette asks, "Where are our US Senatrixes?" We understand that the Governor of the State has to ask, but couldn't BaBa Bowser and DiFeinswein have "strongly urged" him to DO SOMETHING? Oh! I forgot!! Both of these "ladies" are from the San Francisco Bay Area, home to so many of their envirowhacko constituents. Never mind.
