Yes! The chicken ranch fire -- the one further south -- appears to have killed maybe 75-90 K chickens. Horrible.

Of course after acknowledging how horrible that was last night, my honey and I looked at each other, and simultaneously said "mmmmm....roast chicken." I know, we're going to hell.

Well I will join you in hell since I thought the same thing.....

If you're super ambitious, like my brother, you keep a database and update it with every major purchase - item, brand, model #, price, place purchased, date purchase, where it is in the house, distinguishing characteristics, etc...

My mother lives in Canoga Park. Where she is at is really not in danger (they are a ways from foothills), but the ranch where she trains with her mules is RIGHT where the Chatsworth fire started (for those who know the area, it is where Santa Susana Rd breaks off of Topanga).

And there were two fires out in the Inland Empire near Susan's mom (one was the one that burned up a chicken ranch killing 60,000 chickens).

Fire is one thing that scares the hell out of me. I remember one really bad brush fire in the early 80's that was near our house in Chatsworth. I spent several hours on our (wood shake) roof with a hose putting out the burning embers landing on it.

I was surprised this morning at how far the fire had come! I live in North Ranch between Thousand Oaks and Westlake Village and and I could see flames on the hill behind my apartment complex. I'm not really worried, the winds are still...but we are under voluntary evacuation, so I dropped my cats off at my brothers on my way to work!

I'm hungry.

LOL... I thought it might be a tad overcooked. Not much worse than overdone poultry. (Poor chickies...)

Hmm.. that's odd, I could swear I commented on here earlier today. Here's what I thought I said:

Sounds like a good plan.

mmmm...el pollo loco........

Morrigoon · 09-29-2005, 04:33 PM

You know... one time I went into an El Pollo Loco, and it had small flying bugs all around, and then I looked in the cole slaw and saw specks in it. Now, I never did bother confirming what those specks were, but I haven't been able to eat El Pollo Loco since, because every time I think about it, I picture that cole slaw...

(And yet I could eat at Kenny Rogers Roasters where they cut the chicken in front of you with scissors, go figure. I'm more squeamish about the possibility of bugs in my cole slaw than I am about the sound of a chicken's spine snapping)
