His G/F leave him?

What is it about people from Hollywood. It seems that the bigger the scandal, the more they need to support noble causes. Does an illegitimate child by the hired help really require that the governator save the whole world?
His speech and choice of words give-away his low IQ.
Those glistening musclemen supported their youthful indulgence by pandering to rich old dudes.
The smell of the Green stuff will make almost anyone do anything.
My firsthand knowledge of southwestern wildfires is limited to the Hardy and Schultz Fires in Flagstaff, June of 2010. Both were started by people doing stupid things. I know it’s a hasty generalization, but I say most southwest wildfires are the result of people doing stupid things. Climate Changing and people doing stupid things are unrelated. Except the people talking climate changing are doing stupid things.
Fire is an essential part of the pine forest cycle.
It would seem then that we aren’t having enough fires. Millions of acres burned every year before Man came along and “fixed” it.
The pine forest of LA (Lower Alabama) and the Florida Pan Handle are even more dependent on fire than the lodge pole pine forest of the West.
Look at the number of lightening caused fires! Those have to do with natural weather conditions and I agree that fires are necessary for forest health.
All these washed up politicians want an excuse to try out masseuses in every country just like their gross leader. Climate change is a tyrant’s wet dream.
By my calculation, a whopping 0.138% of the U.S. has burned in a wildfire so far this year. The land surface area of the U.S. is 3,537,436 square miles, and there are 640 acres per mile. Put another way, a state the size of Connecticut has burned this year.
Clearly, we’ve suppressed too many fires as fire is part of the natural cycle of life. At this rate it will take over 700 years to cycle through the entire country, but let’s say only a tenth of the country needs fire – that’s still a human lifetime per fire per location.
We do a controlled burn every few years in the wetlands area of my condo subdivision. It cleans out the overgrowth resulting in a healthy storage area for excess rainwater. We actually pay a contractor to do this work.
