With Extreme Fire conditions and numerous out of control wildfires, what took the MD so long to finally impose bans?

Our entire generation is Pussified. Watching people flee their homes and communities instead of staying and fighting to protect them. An entire generation waiting for a hero. People on the news this morning saying their dogs are scared and stressed because they left their homes lol lol dogs love road trips.
We are doomed.

Having a family, I would leave too. You are kind of trapped up there. My house isn't worth my life.

That being said, I did fight the 2011 fires and it was a surreal experience. The amount of oxygen required to feed a big fire is unreal. Almost sucks you in

I agree with the family. Women and children. But .. Men stay to fight just like in wars. Just like in home invasions. Just like in life. Being a man ain’t easy. It comes with responsibility.

You wanted to say “miners” didn’t you.......;);)
really depends on whether the tavern wants to go broke denying a miner into the establishment or face some legal repercussions by letting a minor into said establishment? every saloon door i went through had a sign "no minors allowed", from my foggy memory?

My memory is getting a little bit on the foggy side also. This getting older is a real pita.
Where are the Golden years?
