Dozens of wildfires continue to burn across the West on Monday but fire agencies reported some progress in corralling the flames as forecasters predicted a gradual decrease in extreme temperatures. Right now, the two largest fires are burning forests in northeastern California and southern Oregon, sending smoke across other parts of the country, including right here in the Bay Area. The National Weather Service on Monday noted in one of its graphics that smoke from wildfires outside the region is visible in our region.

A Killer Whale would eat your Cougar and shoot him out his blowhole like a Polaris missile.

I saw a show yesterday where a Killer Whale ate a lion.

It was a Sea Lion, but still.

And it has been scientifically proven that a Killer Whale can generate up to three kajillion psi out of their blowholes.

NASA has been looking at Killer Whales to launch satellites.

They eat the cougar and then spit it out and suck it into the blowhole so it can shoot it out.

This is called cat-a-paulting.

Navy does it all the time.

So the Bay Area can see smoke from from their own state.

Is this to keep us from thinking about all the crap in their streets?

“Always be prepared. Don’t take it easily. Anything can happen… a 15-minute run or an hour run.”

In this case a forest fire broke out.
