Eight Years Later
Irradiated by Stingray
Eight years and five months ago, a forest service asshole by the name of Roy Weaver approved a controlled burn somewhat to the west of Los Alamos. The results were unpleasant.
Because I’m too sick of politics, especially that evil* Biden, to say more on the subject, let’s instead enjoy some of Mother Nature’s fireworks displays. Pictures are linked to full-size.
Busy weekend ahead with a pig roast in Albuquerque tomorrow, and a Corvette party on Sunday, so posting may be a hair light. Oh, and if anybody happens to see where the bolt catch spring for my AR build landed, I’d appreciate it if you’d just leave it on my desk.
*Espousing policies that are blatantly marxist such as government adjustment of mortgage principal is evil. Communism killed more people than several wars and the Holocaust combined in the 20th century, it is an inherantly evil doctrine, and it is sickening that one of our potential leaders is openly calling it a good idea.

Minor nit.
Biden’s not a “Potential Leader” – he’s a current Senator. He’s potentially going to be the Vice President (Quick! Where’s the duty of the VP defined! What is it?)
But that would actually lessen his current power, barring something happening to the President.
While this is a nit, and I understand what you mean, crazy and evil thoughts by someone who merely aspires to public office is one thing.
Those by someone who’s already *in* public office, in one of the highest and most critical positions? That’s inexcusable, and the fact it’s utterly unremarked upon is telling itself.

The best we can do is try to get some decent people into Congress. Right now it’s populated by a bunch of idiots who I wouldn’t trust to run a book club, let alone a country.
