Two way to look at it
 
There are 2 ways you can look at all the fires in SO CAL...

One is that it is a blessing from Gawd that some of the excess housing in CA has been eliminated and housing prices might now stabilize :rolleyes:

Or that it is the WRATH of Gawd wrought upon the hedonistic anti-Gawd anti business Liberal State of CA....:eek:

Yes I think it would be a GOOD IDEA to conduct a Poll to see which one these ways we should look at it....I leave it to the good members and their wisdom to decide.

frogger 10-23-2007 01:27 PM

A third way to look at it is that nature is potentially harsh and some areas are periodically subject to fire, flood, e-quakes, tornados or hurricanes. If you live in those areas, be prepared for what nature can throw at you.

IROC 10-23-2007 01:33 PM

Yeah, can't see either one of those being correct...

Porsche-O-Phile 10-23-2007 01:41 PM

It can't be "A" because San Diego is largely a right-wing, military-oriented city and it can't be "B" because I suspect it'll do more damage to housing demand than to inventory.

I'm hoping it makes all the illegals south of the border want to stay out, but more likely they'll either try to use the fires & smoke as cover to get across easier and see it as good for them since there will be so much residential reconstruction in the coming months (and who but illegals does residential construction any more?)

This isn't a matter of having muliple choichs...it an either or situation, there ONLY TWO ways to look at this..you can't be a Mamby Pamby pole sittin way till I see which way the wind is blowing Clinton loving Liberal on this one....MAKE A CHOICH..take a stand and be a man.

jyl 10-23-2007 01:42 PM

If buyers, lenders, or insurers take fright, could further slow house demand in SoCal, potentially in a broad area of SoCal.

Does pull some supply off market, but how much - suppose 5,000 houses burn, suppose 5% to 10% of homes in typical neighborhood are for sale, that's 250 to 500 units less supply. Doesn't seem like a lot.

Not clear if the demand impact or the supply impact is greater.

It's the drugs, right? We told you not to mix them with your afternoon cocktails. :)

Natural disasters (or man-made disasters) are good for business. Especially when you're in the building business. If you believe in trickle down economics - these fires will be good for CA. I'm sure there are lots of contractors gassing up the trucks getting ready to get to work.

Aerkuld 10-23-2007 01:51 PM

I have a lot of sympathy for the people affected by the fires, but to be honest I don't think it is a suprise to anyone. I lived down near the El Toro marine base a few years back and was always aware that we were sitting on a powder keg. In my mind it wasn't so much IF, as WHEN. Homes have been built in, or right up next to canyons and other wild areas packed full of combustible material that hasn't been cleared out for years. All it needed was a small fire to start and the wind to be blowing in the right direction and the whole lot would be toast.
As much as I apprecite Tabs' alternative sense of humor the real reason behind this must surely be a mixture of bad planning and bad luck.

I can tell just from your answer that your a co[k su[king Clinton loving Liberal. What U got no hair on your balls or didn't they drop yet? Step up an commit yourself to something and make a choich, you will feel a whole lot better about yourself when your a real man.

teenerted1 10-23-2007 01:58 PM

lets take a real poll

which will get fixed first?

So Cal
New Orleans

After watching Top Gear last night. It reminded me how messed up the last natural disater was, and still is being handled.

Here we go with the "I feel your pain" train of thought....Forget the bad planning or bad luck...this is AN ACT OF GAWD...is this a vengeful Gawd or a benevolent Gawd at work here? GIVE ME AN ANSWER, so that I will know.

And which one is going to be fixed by:

Private Citizens
The Federal Government?

What does Gawd and the fires have to do with Nawlins? Stop dodging the subject...is Gawd pissed or is he helping CA out?

It is precisily because I DON'T KNOW that I'm asking the question. Maybe if we asked Paris I would get a more definative answer than I am getting from this crowd, and she is an avowed co[k su[ker.

frogger 10-23-2007 02:12 PM

Tabs, I think you should use the spoons to induce vomiting. It helps to get those bad things out of your stomach. Regarding your poll, it seems like you're hellbent on a liberal pursuit of blame and rationalization for bad ju-ju in one's life. My initial response was chockfull of personal responsibility and situational awareness. The former is inconsistent with being a master buffeteer, and the later is way too consistent with that profession. I realize this may leave you feeling kind of schitzophrenic, but under no circumstances are you to mix your drugs with your booze. Stay safe. :)

If I wanted Psycho Babble I sure wouldn't come to you to hear it...all U have to do is listen to Lubby or Moses to get an ear full of that cr@p. Their Threads usually seem to wind up being full of it...

Yes Gawd Pleeze Save Me from these co[k su[king Liberal thinkers... deliver me unto the sancity of some sanity...some rightous people who can give me a straight answer to my question. Is Gawd pissed at Liberals and homos or is he helping out by eliminating the over supply of housing in CA.

Have you ever considered getting up off your knees and being a man by making a REAL choich, and not giving a limp wristed Bill Clinton loving answer?

frogger 10-23-2007 03:04 PM

I choose being a man and not blaming anyone. ***** happens. Be prepared. Get a life. Buy low, sell high. Loose lips sink ships. No new taxes.

BTW, your poll needs a "none of the above" choice. That's what I would choose. :)
