Death & Property Destruction: Images At Eleven

It's raining, first time since we re-located to this exclusive bunker. Far from our downscale flatlands, fearful hillside homeowners stare at the barren hillsides that didn't quite burn to their houses earlier in the season, waiting for the first sign of a wall of mud & plant corpses bearing down on them.

The Great Leveler, Earthquake, unlike cousins Fire, Flood & Mudslide, will bring all to their knees, or graves, & will strike w/o warning. Too bad. Anticipation is half the fun.

$20K fine, Maybe when she becomes a real lawyer she will appreciate what just happened. I wonder if she is a mail order bride, just like her law degree?

Naturalization Editor Notes:

Don't quote us, but we think the story is Dr. Esq. moved from Moldova to Israel, where she met her hubby the rich American, who swept her off her feet & straight to Orange County.

Fug, we were going to work a little Travis Bickle into that, "rain/streets, &c.," but pretentious pseudo-literary writing is difficult & usually stinks, so we gave up as soon as we found a way out.
