If built correctly, the mudslide should have no affect on a house's foundation. My house is built on a hillside (though not with those frightening pillars - they scare even me!) but it's built on concrete pilings that go down 40 feet into the bedrock. It's rock and not "mud," of course, but even if the hillside that our house was built on were to wash away, the house would still be standing on its foundation supports. Exactly what happened to my old house...before it burned in the Oakland Hills fire. Geez...you can't win for losing.

That's what peeves me off, then the bank turns around and pays you like 2% or less interest on your savings account.

It hit 107 yesterday according to the am paper. I registered only 105 in the yard. It was still the hottest weather that I've experience in my 60+ years of existence.

No offense to anyone, but, I couldn't care less. Woodstock and that whole generation didn't/hasn't done squat to further jazz, has had only negative consequences. Fuck Woodstock and its historical significance.

They might can make Snipes a good fit portraying Monk. Sounds good as long as they retain musical and biographical authenticity and don't use "profiling" as the main focus, using JLo's fine ass, etc. as the centerpiece of the film. [i didn't read the complete articles/links.]

It was 101 about an hour ago, it's supposed to hit 105 today. I've never ever experienced heat like this.

I feel for you. Part of my brain died from overload. Good luck with the job.

Point taken. I take it building on a mudslide prone mountain is sorta a status symbol much like living on/having lake front property(?). From what I hear mudslides are a pretty regular event. Hurricanes not so much in my immediate area, not even if you live in a flood zone. Of course insurance companies and news shows will have you believe differently. Personally, I wouldn't live in a flood zone (on rivers, some lakes) because I'd pay out the nose for insurance.

Thanks my ass, what's the right answers?

new skyscraper planned in san francisco, earthquake proof i'm sure Not surprising, this from folks that build houses on the side of mountains prone to mudslides to boot. The insurance premiums must be astronomical.

I've never heard of this LSAT. I've never even had to take the SAT, even though I've got 10+ years of post secondary ed, including a BS in Music Ed. I left HS without graduating, went to pro school(HS diploma wasn't required), then later got a GED, went to state uni(they didn't ask about SAT), and have taken numerous courses at jr college(including Ass. Degree in BusAdmin. Ain't that interesting...

I worked in the yard from 10 to 10:30 am, noticed it was 95 when I came in. Now it's 100 on the dot.

I wonder if the gov used to regulate the housing industry somehow or other? It used to prevent and breakup monopolies and regulated food(still does, milk)and gas, if I'm not mistaken. I hope our little country hasn't gotten as good as it can get and is on the downside.

At 10:30 AM it was already 95 degrees.
