Jeez, we hit 130

Here's the view from my window last nite:

The haze has grown incredibly bad lately. We're all hard done by the wind direction, for sure, but WHAT THE FUCK is happening in INDO and M'SIA?!?!

All we can do is keep showing satellite images and data, but because of political/democratical/illogical/non-environmental reasons we can't tell off our neighbours what they are doing to us?!?!
"It's a cat and mouse kind of situation. They might be enforcing some measures in a certain location, but in some other part of the country, there are still people clearing land and causing these fires,"
ridiculous

Now everyone will be staying home, blasting up the A/C, use up more energy and fuel, and inadvertently cause more harm while somebody, in somewhere, can't for the bleddy sakes, govern their country and it's fine? sheesh

Can't believe Beams is 30. Check out the Screaming Leg vinyl from Rock poster god Jim Phillips. If you don't know Jim and his Screaming Hand, you gotta see more from this Golden Age veteran.
