Chopper flying over my house looking for water. They normally pump their tanks from water behind wal-mart.

Its especially dangerous because of winds, mountains, and low visibility. Here’s a helicopter dealing with Santa Ana’s. Its not uncommon for these birds to crash.

Just got a call from Steve who can see my place from the mountains, he says the fire looks pretty close to our house but the wind is blowing it away from us so we should be okay…then his cell connection died.

Well well well, looks like VeriSign had to shutdown its sitefinder service after ICANN gave 36 hours notice to cut it off. Sitefinder was a “service” which redirects you to VeriSign’s website if you type in a non-existent domain. This was done by placing wildcard entries in the root DNS servers…which causes problems all across the board with security and anti-spamming software. Dealing with me I can say VeriSign has had a history of poor business, I particularly dislike their lack of security. But be light-hearted, they only control .com and .net ….org is still free for the elite.

Benjamin’s opinion on class action lawsuits

Class action lawuits are designed to make you think you benefit from them. You don’t. The only people that benefit are lawyers. The people who pay for the lawyers are the consumers. The consumer also must pay for the vouchers. That’s right. You pay for it all.

Steven Baehr dropped by. A great friend, we just haven’t crossed path’s too often lately. He’s a Music Minister up at a church in Fontana. If there’s a man for the job its him. He’s firm on the Bible, loves God, loves others, and has a passion for music like I haven’t seen in anyone.
