I can't see the video, but they said on the news this morning that trying to fight any of this fire with a garden hose, is not smart. Can't blame people for trying though.

Maybe if you're not an able-bodied person, it's not smart. You also have to weigh out your situation. We have it from the horses(Buzzy,no, I'm not calling you a horse) mouth that Jeff Meeker saved his home with his garden hose. Too many people just expect the authorities to fix everything for them and these people are just waiting around for their turn to become victims.
Screw the news, man. This guy is a hero, in my book. Newscasters are a bunch of whiny, PC, Jaggofs.......especially here in San Diego, because all they ever show are the rich neighborhoods, when it comes to disasters of this nature. They never show the folks that live down in the canyons, in trailers and mobile homes that lose everything with no insurance to replace their lives. Every time I watch the news (especially channel 7), I'm further convinced that San Diego TV stations do their personnel recruiting at douchebag conventions.

If I ever become my own biggest fan, somebody SHOOT ME!!
