Prayers for Druff (2025 LA fires)

[Sloppy Joe]

Another interesting note.

Last night I was taking to my friend on the phone who lives in Henderson, NV. She asked a question that makes a good point- Does LA get water from Lake Mead? The answer is YES.

For decades, I’ve visited Las Vegas and got a chuckle seeing the LA DWP trucks in Clark County, NV. The city of LA operates (own or lease?) facilities at Lake Mead and sends water to LA. It’s so big, that the city has their own city employed Security Officers on-site. How much land, building and water is involved, I don’t know. Additionally, there is a city of LA DWP “Victorville Switching Station in the Lacerne Valley area in the high desert.

So this leads me to ask- when the fires broke out in LA proper, did a call go out to the LA facility at Lake Mead to boost the water pressure to the LA city area??

I took this pic last year at my Henderson, NV hotel of a fairly new LA DWP truck in the parking g lot…

Great picture!

A note about the yellow Clark County fire trucks, the ISO Class 1 decals have been removed from them. Maybe they lost their accreditation? Can Druff confirm?

This is the government’s fault. But not the current one. They’re doing the best they can. Perhaps allowing unfettered development for maximum profit in a tinderbox was not a good idea.

Seriously, when can we get a break from your relentless opinions? On like everything. We have all had enough. Please stop. Or post on the failed former lawyer board. Fuck you are wearing everyone out here. We do not care about your failed lawyer opinions. Go back to the nightclub you work at the resort serving tourists. We don't like you here. We hate you. We don't care about your 20 year old lawyer anecdotes. We despise you. Yeah, can I tell you about a case I worked in 1998? No, nobody cares, ever.

As previously mentioned, I fear we are only scratching the surface of the competency crisis. Decades of affirmative action/DEI (combined with now decades of stuffing cheap labor foreigners into positions they're not really qualified for) has consequences. The systems these people manage are becoming more and more complex proportionally to the collective increase in incompetence. This increase has also caused erosion across all systems of the systems put into place to stave off disasters or quickly identify disasters. Expect the retarded shit we keep seeing happen only to further accelerate. It's a fucking cancer.

desertrunner: I dont really pray, but Druff needs our help.



the way you grovel for todd's online attention is cringe.

sadly however, it demonstrates how meaningless your life is.

do you even notice how todd ignores your advances?

give it some thought.

Seriously, there has always been a certain "tone" and vibe in this forum, I go along with the silly stuff and just play along. Since you take some of my goofing off serious, I guess you cant follow along.


Anyway, now the blame game is on- This dike will be out of a job soon...

Palisades fire seemed to be on its way out, as it was being contained and seemingly under control.

However, it snuck through on the northeast and northwest sides, now putting Brentwood, Sherman Oaks, and Encino in danger. These are densely populated areas (especially Sherman Oaks), and would be one of the most devastating fires in California history if it manages to jump the 405/101 freeway barriers, and spread into residential areas.

Master Scalir, a resident of Sherman Oaks who is right by both freeways, is choosing to stay home and ride it out.


In other news, the power failure may have broken my refrigerator, which was working fine prior to the outage. 9 hours after the outage ended, my freezer is just 55 degrees, and my refrigerator is in the 60s. Sad!

Dude, from the pic it looks like you got your money out of it. Dig in the Jew wallet and buy a new one.
