Burn this mother down!!!!!!




So it has been a little chaotic lately around my house. One of the three major forces of nature is taking its toll on the San Gabriel Valley. Fire has ravaged the forest in Northern Azusa, as well as the Angeles National Forest in Tujunga, and La Canada....The increase in heat (It has been 100 + degrees the past three days) has not helped much at all. Now it has ripped east across the mountain range and is parallel with East Pasadena. Emergency Evacuation has been put into place in the previously mentioned towns, and the cloud cover was so gnar when I woke up this morning that I had to close my window because my room smelt like I was at a campfire for a week and didn't wash any of my clothes....Supremely bad smell to wake up to. Much respect to the Men and Women in the Fire Departments around L.A. County and all the volunteers that have been sacrificing their time, and vehicles to help accommodate those who have had to be evacuated. Here are a few pics of the carnage that man started and Mother Nature took into her incubating hands. Still want to live in California? I don't blame you!

Ingloriously Glorious.

I went and saw The Inglorious Basterds last night. Tarantino did not disappoint. The script was amazing. Certainly a stretch for the usually gory director. Aldo the Apachee, The Bear Jew, The short one and the rest were amazing. Lets just say watching history rewritten has never been so Glorious.
