Damn, that must be stressful. Sorry to hear.
And it's barely May. Sadly I this kind of thing is just becoming more common with global warming and drier temperatures. This summer is going to be a doozie.

CIC, what would RS be without you? I understand you, albeit barely, and if you ever find your way back (to earth), it would be a sad day for those of us who wait with great anticipation for your responses to every thread on RS.

I heard people saying the gas price will now be $2+/L because of this, lack of oil sand access, is this true?

Potential silver lining is that since access to the Mac is restricted we should see an oversupply of cocaine in the short term, lowering the cost of eight balls. Quote:

I could only imagine what it would be like if you could see the flames coming.
A bunch of years ago when Kelowna was burning was the closest we've ever come to a forest fire that is threatening lives. Fire on both sides of the highway, with crews working their asses off to try and maintain control.
Glad to hear that your area is okay. I'm sure the rain that hit last night helped. Btw, I'll take credit for that rain. I washed my truck and stepped on a spider yesterday. |
