The Williams Fire |

But my heart goes out to the poor Nebraska BugPickers. The UCLA Bruins play them in the Rose Bowl, just below the San Gabriel Mountains. And, this fire, only 5% contained, doesn't look like full containment until next Monday.
.
That means that Saturday at 4:50 dusk will begin to fall with the full otherworldly glow of fire (like Mount Doom) in the East - with smog and ash chocking them as Nebraska takes the field to defend their 16th ranking - against a home team fired up with a new quarterback and a new coach. It is our best chance to beat them.

I don't wish for anyone to be hurt in this fire. I think they should just let it burn itself out.
