No kidding?” 4:08:12 AM 10/25/07 “I heard they suspect arson, but I don't think they shot anyone yet.” 5:38:09 AM 10/25/07 “Yeah, they shot somebody yesterday up near san bernadino i think. He was backing his car into the squad car and they shot him. He was a suspected arsonist.” 8:49:38 AM 10/25/07 “Bush is in San Diego, so don't worry.

Chris can no longer afford to pay for DSL and had to let it go. i have no idea when it will shut off. i am going to let it die, then i will set up an account in my own name, this may take several days, as i have to do it under my own phone number.” 1:19:00 PM 10/25/07 “F'sure!” 1:40:06 PM 10/25/07 “BrianSean and I are going into Westwood in Rancho Bernardo today and handing out informative flyers to the homeowners there with our Boy Scout troop. This is one of the areas that was burned out, they are still without power last I heard. We are bringing masks and gloves in case we can do anything else for anyone. I am glad to finally be of use to someone. I hate inactivity.” 11:12:34 AM 10/28/07 “I had an (sorry no word for this) experience yesterday. I did find a homeowner to help. I wrote a blog about some of it; it's in my myspace as usual.” 2:51:53 AM 10/29/07 “Busy.................Dizzy?” 2:57:18 AM 10/29/07 “will be; back to work today. it's not high school, but it's a few hours at BrianSean's middle school and that's a little money. etu?” 9:14:29 AM 10/29/07 “I spent a tough weekend car camping with The Boneheads in Pennsylvania.” 9:40:56 AM 10/29/07 “boneheads? must be halloween! were you close to a graveyard? well i have to get up and shower for work in a minute or two. did you read my new blog yet? it's an amazing story!” 10:01:24 AM 10/29/07 “Link??

There is RECKLESS Endangerment and there is the availablity of the damaged to SUE the crap out of the basturds parents and there are juvenile fire setter programs that they must complete.....” 5:14:48 AM 11/16/07 “No charges will be brought against a 10-year-old boy accused of accidentally starting an October wildfire that scorched more than 38,000 acres north of Los Angeles, California, prosecutors announced Tuesday. How does a 10 year old "accidentally" start a fire? Don't they mean to say he accidentally burned 38,000 acres, 21 homes and 42 other structures? Was he smoking and his cigarette got away from him? Was he fixing his lawn mower and sparks got out of hand? Isn't it more likely he puposefully started the first?” 5:19:09 AM 11/16/07 “i caught my 2nd son playing with matches when he was 7 years old. i took him into the kitchen, filled the sink with water and brought out all the books of matches i had. i had him strike a match and hold it until it burnt almost down to his finger and then throw it into the sink. he started to get tired of it after an hour. i kept him there for almost two hours striking match after match after match after match. i told him when we were done if he should ever feel like lighting matches again, to please see me and i would buy him some matches and we could do this again. i also promised him that he could build the next campfire if he never played with fire or matches again. Then I mentioned to his Den Leader that it would be a great idea to visit the fire station. She set that up.” 7:14:04 PM 11/16/07 “This is a really cool time lapse video of the Simi Valley wildfires of 2005. Watch for Orion and the moon rising. http://www.boingboing.net/2008/06/12/time-lapse-of-simi-v.html last edited: 6/12/08 12:31:12 PM” 12:31:09 PM 6/12/08
