Rant: went on nice drive thru the Hills today - stopped in Lead at the Black Hills Roundhouse for lunch. we both ordered a simple sandwich - French dip with home made chips as a side. They took our order - ten minutes later came and told us it would be another 25 minutes before our food would be ready. Then when it finally came - the promised baguette was more like a hoagie roll and the au jus had over a quarter of inch of grease on top and no flavoer --
BAD
Rave: beautiful setting -- now if they would only get their act together

Rant: Went to take the garbage out before going to bed and saw a flickering orange glow and sparks flying from a neighbor's house.
Rave: Discovered I am not a bystander and ran to their house to wake them up and get them out.
RANT: Dude is out on his back porch at midnight drinking beer and burning an old wood pile in a howling windstorm under extreme grassland fire danger conditions while the wind carries the embers onto the roofs of his neighbors' houses as they sleep.
Rave: Was able to convince him that perhaps this should wait for a better time and more optimal conditions and that he should put the fire out. Carefully. Thank you.
Rant: I won't sleep at all tonight. I keep going outside and checking to make sure my roof isn't on fire.
