    1. Oh wow so sorry hope your doing well👏now.
      Seeing this is overwhelming cannot imagine going through this. This past fires was heartbreaking too.
      Best to all.

    2. @Marti G. Garcia thank you. I am doing well. Now living in Las Vegas, but I do have a lot less “stuff” than I did before that day. lol

  1. In my day, a man would wear a jacket and tie to a graduation. Now, don’t even bother to button your flannel shirt.

    1. AndrewVelonis Yeah…. that was in my day, too…. but the difference between me and you, is that I am apparently more aware that the world has moved on. And that the heart and emotions are more important that buttons on a shirt. It ain’t about appearance, Andrew.

    2. Graduation ceremonies for High School are a joke anyway. It’s like a participation medal. Congratulations, you achieved the bare minimum.

    3. I grew up in in rural California, and graduated in 1976. Nobody wore a suit and tie, most of us were in jeans and t-shirts under our gowns, because right after the graduation exercise, we boarded an overnight bus to Disneyland. My mother didn’t allow me “dungarees’, so I wore a cotton pants suit, and my friends thought I was overdressed. I really doubt you are much older than I, but rural California is different from the overtight east coast. We made fun of people whose boots showed no signs of manure, and called them dudes. I bet you’ve never bucked hay. Not a different time, a different place.

  2. 👍 Ask yourself how do you feel about putting a nuclear trigger in the hands of a criminal, paranoid, narcissistic sociopath?

    1. @omi god the point is this. With a month and a half left orange hair can do alot of damage and that’s why it’s been all over the news for the last week.

  3. Thanks for featuring Ron Howard and his documentary about rebuilding the town of Paradise.

    As a Californian, this fire and others, unfortunately destroy lives and entire communities.

    What is still shocking and vivid in my mind, is remembering how Trump visited Paradise, at the end of the fire and couldn’t even utter the name of the town properly.

    Just goes to show what kind of human being occupies the WH. He is no Ron Howard, Micka, Joe or Billy.

    For us here in California, we didn’t just have an election, we had an exorcism.

    Good riddance.

  4. I regularly drive through paradise. It is amazing how far they have come. When the fire was finally put down there was nothing left. For months after it was just lines of trucks removing debris. Now it is beginning to look like civilization again. I thought it would just become a ghost town, and there is a long way to go. It is amazing how much is now functioning.

  5. If the people actually knew what we are doing, it’s like Hillary said, “We’ll all hang”.
    Darn these pesky citizens. We need you all to move to a more populous area.

    I need another drink

  6. Ron Howard is a fantastic director and I’ve loved all of his films…….but he’ll always be Opie to me. I mean this in the best possible way! 🙂

  7. I like the part where t’rump visited that town and called it “Pleasure” instead of Paradise.
    So much empathy! 😅😂

  8. When Trump complains about the management of the forests in California, what he fails to tell you is that only 3% of the forests are owned by the state of California and 51% are owned and managed by the federal government. That means that 51% of that land is under his management, and like most things, Trump has mismanaged that.

  9. My mom’s was in the Paradise Fire and almost died and lost everything…What she saw devastated her, us and continues to haunt her. I am glad that this documentary was produced.
