The only news here in San Diego, are the wildfires burning all around the county. It looks like we are up to 9 fires at this point. It is 6 PM now, so the strong winds are dying down and the temperatures dropping a bit.
We have had a high temperature of 97°F (36°C) today with 6-8% humidity and strong winds, so it does not take much to get these fires going. I am pretty safe (for now), but I work with people that live close to the fires and have children whose schools were evacuated.
I bought a car today after my car was declared a total loss yesterday as a result of my accident last week. I could have done without the extra expense, but it is what it is.
To those of you that have asked, my wife and I are very relieved after the results from her biopsy came back as non-cancerous.

So pleased to hear the knee biopsy came back clear.

Thanks. Yes, we have so many other things going on that we really don't need something like that to knock us back down.

At least the results of the biopsy are in your favor the rest can be replaced.

You are absolutely right. Everyone at work are constantly keeping their eyes on the news. Except for those that could not come to work today because they live in areas of the county that are still under evacuation.

...is, writing an article[^] and then having someone contribute a different technology implementation. Kudos to Peter for making that effort!

Nice one Marc!
Would it have saved you a lot of troubles to know that[^] beforehand?!

Nice. But there's more to the article than just the table.

Strongly Agree.

I'll never forget hearing Deep Purple at Fillmore West on November 30, 1968; also on the bill was one of my favorite groups, It's a Beautiful Day. I had just come back after forty-seven days at sea on a back-and-forth from Oakland, California to Da Nang, Vietnam on a refrigerated tractor-trailer carrying ship taking 292 containers of frozen vegetables, meat, picnic meats, etc. to the US troops (couldn't have our soldiers eating rice too often).
Purple rocked out, but those were the better-living-through-chemistry daze when it was easy to be rocked-out
cheers, Bill

I saw them when the reformed in Knebworth in 85, didn't think much of them then. Perhaps we were just too damn far from the stage.
Heck, even meatloaf looked tiny!

Both good groups but never got to see either one and I might have received some of the goods you were shipping as Da Nang was our closest supply point. We were very far north, about 7 miles from the DMZ so we didn't get a lot of creature comforts but when we did we appreciated the hell out of them thanks to guys like you. Thanks

Looks like, finally, no one cares anymore.

The Lakers didn't make the NBA playoffs.
The owner of the LA Clippers is a racist.
Solange Knowles attached Jay Z in an elevator.

Its a madhouse! Nothing a small tactical nuke wouldn't cure... but a madhouse none the less.

Don't forget the on going celebritard undergarment shortage. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'm curious, what more do you expect can be done?
Continue a futile search of one of the most inaccessible areas on the planet after seeing absolutely no evidence that they are even looking in the right place. For DEAD people!

The Australian search is continuing - they have just allocated $90 million in the federal budget for it.
