yeah - me and my friend were talking about this, did the gov't learn its lesson or was it just because it was rich white pepes? truc told me when the fires started they send 1400 firefighters to uber-rich malibu first thing and only 800 to san diego even though those fires were worse. oh no - can't let david geffen's house burn down!
(i miss you eli!)

No kidding! I am just appalled at how quickly everything springs into place when white rich people are in the way of a fire. Acupuncture? Massage therapy? No wonder the displaced people are so happy. (Not to mention that there aren't dead people all over the place.)

You'll be shocked to learn that migrant workers in the area haven't fared as well. They're getting deported or refused services if they don't have papers. %$#@!

hey friend, it's good to see your face on my flist, even if the entry is about such a fucked up situation. i have read some really outrageous statistical comparisons between new orleans & so-cal.

how is your life these days? what are you up to?
