The worst loneliness is not to be comfortable with yourself.

Fire!

It is reportedly the largest firestorm California has ever seen... this coming at the close of the fire season. There's no predicting Mother Nature. I'd like to lambast those who build illegal campfires and carelessly let them get out of control. Also to those who freely fling their burning cigarette butts about (witness this whenever you're sitting in traffic). Arsonists. And just plain idiots. Of course there's the possibility that lightning can be the cause of all this mayhem, but as I said, there's no predicting Mother Nature. If cause be not hers, then witness her wrath in what is known as the Santa Ana winds. Let's all hope that the fires will soon be contained and many lives spared (five deaths to date).

On a lighter note, how about a list of songs that reference one of early man's greatest discoveries (loosely or otherwise)?

"Burning for You", "Ring of Fire", "Fire", "Disco Inferno", "I'm On Fire", "Play with Fire", "Summer in the City", "Fire Down Below", "House of Fire", "The Heat is On", "Great Balls o' Fire", "Jump Into the Fire".
Please feel free to chime in with any glaring omissions; I'm sure there are more. Anyone able to tag the correct artists' names to these titles?

Stay cool.


UPDATE: Arson believed to be cause of fires.
