Default This place is screwed up!



some of you might have heard the san fransico bay is jacked up. last week a container ship hit the bay bridge. the bridge is fine but the ship ripped it's side open spilling about 55,000 gallons of crude bunker oil into the bay. it's killikn everythingfish, birds, seals you name it. the spill has expanded and flowed out of the bay up and down the coast lines now it's mess. you could probally find details on the net. i would link it up but ya'all know im not that savy on the pc. anyways i hope it gets cleaned up soon[&o]

Sorry Hoedog, and anyone else that is affected by this, including animals. My brother-in-law and his family is moving there to the Bay area in a few months from Washington state. I guess $16,000 isn't enough to live on here. But he has always wanted his own office, and so they are going to make the move. One nice thing, I will finally get to visit Cali, never been there.
