Here we go again

Although the high mountains have record snow this year, here in the foothills it has been very dry. Normally we have had nearly 60 inches of snow by this time, but this year there's been only 18. SO, today there's so much smoke in the air I can't even see the mountains, 8 miles away, as 3 different forest fires are burning on the front range, with one near Evergreen and another close to Golden, where the kids live. AND, the wind is really kicking up. Could be interesting, and scary.

You could see the fire from our backyard last night, before the smoke became too bad. I got home from work today to a house that smells like a campfire ( guess there are worse smells out there, and could barely see North Table Mtn. which is less than a mile away until the wind sifted. Oh boy!

Is crazy. The smoke is dense around here, and we're not really close, like you.

The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

Yahoo…Dotard’s Big Beautiful Diesel Deal pissed off Ukraine and most of the world, plus well over half of Congress and the US, BUT, it helped his buddy Putin and his partners in Big Oil, sooo, we can see where the dick’s priorities are.

  President Donald Trump’s diesel deal with Russia would supply the global market with 4.8 million metric tons, or nearly 36 million barrels total.  This is equivalent to a little more than a single day of global demand.  The U.S. is a net diesel exporter so it does not need Russian supply, said Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates. Goldman Sachs estimated the initial Russian release would only reduce wholesale diesel prices by $1 to $2 per barrel, which is currently at approximately $200/barrel.
