Baby rhinos have the zoomies.

Big puppy.

A Golden stops fearing the vacuum and learns to love it.

Doggy drift racers.

Bears: An Out-of-Control Cause for National Concern. Their cheap manipulations do not work on me.

I've got to "moisten the lizard," if you know what I mean.

Some kind of winter weasel.

Selling tickets to the wiener races.

Friday!

After a hard day's work, it's time to relax and reflect on all you've done.

70 These diversity hires in the fire-fighting "leadership" *really* undermine the hard work and high qualification of the rank-and-file. I've had a couple of fire fighters as clients over the years and both explained (as one example) of how difficult it is to sit for the Captain's exam. Since most fire truck fleets are assembled over the course of a couple of decades and kept in service until its no longer possible, one portion of the Captain's exam involved knowing the field specs (water capacity, number of hoses, number of seats, gas mileage, tank size, etc) of more than 30 different makes/models of fire trucks.

Does anyone believe for even a minute that any of the 3 people pictured in that "leadership" picture that was posted here yesterday could even score a 50% score on the Captain's exam?

You would think a competent fire chief for a large urban area like that would very concerned with making sure the "hydrants have water".

Yep, the engineering and all that would be someone else's purview, but you'd think a chief would be like, talking with them, and consulting and all that. You know, if we have a big fire, then we're gonna have high water demand. We need to maybe make sure we have the capacity and a priority system and all that.

My late cousin, who had one of the big, NWS rain gauges, would've done the proper liquid measurement tomorrow morning.

When you get snow/sleet you take the inner cylinder out, and let the solid stuff fall in the outer cylinder. To take the reading, you bring it back in and melt it.

To speed up the process, you can carefully add hot water, measured precisely in the inner cylinder, to the mix, and then subtract it off.

He would've done that sometime tomorrow.

I was just looking at GSP's observations. Starting about noon, they recorded light snow, with a liquid equivalent reading of 0.12" by 4PM. Then it shifted to freezing rain, with one period of "unknown precip" (means they couldn't tell if it was more snow or sleet or freezing rain). They've now racked up 0.34" total for the day.

I don't think I really got that much.

I stupidly agreed to help Her Majesty in some national breed club business, a review of standing rules. There are about 15 sections, each containing as many as 50 standing rules.

My job is to organize the current rules in an Excel document so that they're coherent. All I have to work with is a Word document that was put together by someone who had no idea how to organize anything. Every section has at least three different formats that I have to pick apart. I may die doing this.

213 From the Daily Mail article:

‘Kristin was summoned by Bass this afternoon, about 4pm. She came back from that meeting, hugged her staff goodbye and left. She said she was fired,’ the source said.

The alleged booting follows Crowley lashing out against the Mayor’s cuts to her department, in an interview with a local Fox TV station around 12pm Friday.

‘My message is the fire department needs to be properly funded,’ the Chief said. ‘It’s not.’

‘Did they fail you?’ Fox LA’s Gigi Graciette asked. ‘Yes,’ Crowley replied.

The Fire Department (LAFD) did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Tensions were already at boiling point between Bass and Crowley, even before the disastrous fires broke out on Tuesday."

Ironically, it might be her biggest contribution to her job.

I have no doubt at all that both Bass and Newsom have been taking money from public safety to fund illegals and their idiotic vanity gender projects. If Crowley makes this issue the focus by hammering her boss then she has done a great service.

Department of Water and Power (LADWP) CEO Janisse Quiñones will be up next. The $750,000-a-year LA water czar is responsible for a raft of failures that contributed to the devastating Palisades Fire, according to FD insiders.

On Mayor Karen Bass's orders, the city maxed out its budget to 'attract private-sector talent', hiring Quiñones in May.

NYFD offered to send crews to help with the fires. JetBlue said they would pay all airline costs to fly the crews out there. BASS ASS said no.

Gruesome is letting in fire crews from Mexico.

More illegals for us.

355 I would eat bear meat, but I would have to be pretty damn hungry to do so. Like end-times hungry.

356 >>> I suspect that there's going to be some reorganization of the LAFD command structure pretty soon. Crowley got fired by Karen Bass.

Sorry, the news is changing fast. The fire lesbian that we thought the mayor lesbian fired has now been unfired from her fire lesbian position. We have confirmation that there are no change to any current lesbian positions.

We return you now to your regularly scheduled programming.

Not that I'd recommend it in any case. Ow!

That's quite the career trajectory. Good, now Crowley and Bass hate each other and will eagerly look for opportunities to turn State's evidence. This is too big a cluster-fvkc for there not to be repercussions.

He'll be warned by all the LEO's to not do this. He'll do it anyway and all money raised will wind up in the hands of the Mexican Cartels.

Probably because they knew, with the reservoirs empty, that they would not work.

Also, hundreds of hydrants stolen for scrap metal.

I don't think there is a mechanism for it, but California needs to be reverted back to a Territory.

Posted by: Boss Moss at January 10, 2025 09:58 PM (YeGMU)

A combination of diminished budget, and an apparent lack of stored water upstream. Evidently that part of California has a separate system for non-potable water than tap water. Not sure. Which might explain why folks could take showers and do laundry, but the hydrants were dead.

But in my AO, hydrants are part of the main water system, and are checked regularly.

CA is fooked.

374 And of course, I'm not recommending that rogue civil servants go on a lawless rampage in nice, orderly, well-managed governments like in my picturesque town. They do a good job here.

I'm talking about the already devastated shitholes like LA, where gangsters are an improvement on the current regime.

375 @173 The grease is amazing. I've heard stories.

Romans, who had no soap and reeked of olive oil and some cognate of garlic, mocked the Germanic tribes for washing with bear grease.

It was still in use as a hair pomade by actual civilized people in the 19th century. They guys who ran the ice-road mail route along Lake Superior were named the Beargrease Brothers.
