You news guys have all those flashy computer graphic logos flying around, how
                    hard is it to throw up a map? Sheesh!'

All I have to say is that network news sucks. Bunny and I are following the
Indianwood brush fires [1] and they're not giving enough details for our
liking. Sure, there are plenty of horrific pictures of burning trees and
confidently coiffed reporters describing the devastation, but they aren't
giving the locations of any of the remaining fires. I'm sitting, laptop in
hand, looking at the satellite pictures from Google Maps [2] trying to match
the aerial images being beamed lived on TV (television) so Bunny and I can
see exactly where the fires are.

Sad.

Bunny's mom is fine. Only one home in her development was damaged and the
fires are, from my understanding, mostly contained.
