I hope that everyone is safe and well. And I hope that Mark is holding up as well. They are having a rough time at the moment.

Yes I echo Jim's comments. It's not that long ago when fires were raging in Victoria. According to recent reports, it is the work of an arsonist. Mindless really.

Thanks for the comments Jim and Norm.

I'm fine and safe but not terribly far from the disaster zone.

I know that Jason is creating some ASHA schedules for the Victoria Bush Fires and for the Queensland Flooding. Kind of ironic to have both in the same country at the same time.

I was working throughout the night on Saturday night in the height of the blazes that have now killed 131 people and when Jason posts the ASHA Schedules, I will post my account of the night.

Mark, I'm praying for y'all down in Aussie. The sad part is, as mentioned above, this is suspected to be arsin. You know, there are just some people in this world, who need a good baseball bat upside the head. And tell me WHY some lowlife SCUM piece of (insert favorite explictive here) would do that? I hope they find whoever did it and put them in their place!
