As one who lived through our Angora fire up in Tahoe (live here now but grew up in SoCal), my thoughts and concerns are with you all.

Read Closer!! Brea Canyon High School, a continuation high school!
I went to BOHS for 3 years & graduated from Brea Canyon HS. I am so sad to hear about the damadge! They are awesome schools!

And in the last 24 hours I've seen two separate cretins throw lit cigarette butts out of their car windows. Who the **** are you people?

Allison: Read things a little more carefully BEFORE you comment!
BREA CANYON HS IS a CONTINUATION school. It doesn't seem like it mentioned
Brea Olinda being a continuation school, and even if it did it was an honest
mistake.

So relax you little Brea Olinda girl!

The Times seems to be referring to the city of Corona as being in Orange County. Did it move from Riverside County when we weren't looking?

[Becky]

I go to BOHS, are they going to cancel school tomorrow or are they going to go ahead and let the students go?

[Becky]

Response to my previous question:
Pam Valenti has announced that there will be no school tomorrow.
For pictures of the school, go to www.flickr.com and search for
Brea Olinda High School.

I wanted to point out, cigarettes are far less likely to start fires than they used to be in California... after all, they lose thier ember if you stop smoking them, much like a cigar, I suppose. I rarely smoke, but when I do, I always need to relight... they go out quick. However, that doesn't excuse the littering. When I was in the Navy, I served on a 1st Luitenent for a while... picking up cigarette butts was one of the few jobs left that hadn't been outsourced for an exorberant fee. How hard is it to use an ashtray?
