zlim Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 It's good the fire tornado was not close to the 10,000 gallon spill of fuel when a pipeline burst or Cali would really see a fire. http://ecowatch.com/2014/05/15/10000-gallons-crude-oil-los-angeles/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ross549 Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 I am sure it was just a small mistake. In any case, it sounds like the fires are contained. All evacuation orders have been lifted. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V.T. Eric Layton Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Every once in a while they light off the cannons at Raymond James Stadium (viewing distance to my NW out the window by this desk) when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers manage to score, which isn't too often. That's about as close I get to artillery fire around here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt.Crow Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Thats a very nice looking stadium .but why is it open at both ends .It looks unfinished. Our latest is the *Aviva* Have a google . Its for Rugby primarily but they play soccer and concerts there too . Its Awesome. Firearms give me the creeps . But I love the heavy stuff.

V.T. Eric Layton Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I don't know who designed Raymond James Stadium. The vacant area just behind it in that picture is where the original Tampa Stadium used to be. It was also opened at both ends originally, but was later completed; then it got the nickname "The Big Sombrero." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V.T. Eric Layton Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Image search. I don't do flying... or boats. As soon as they complete that bridge across the Atlantic, I'll be visiting my ancestral homelands of Ireland, Northern Scotland, Spain, and Norway.
