Here is an "official" update from the City of San Bruno regarding that horrific and deadly natural gas explosion that has left a portion of this San Fransisco Bay enclave totally destroyed.

One of my friends is a reporter from NBC News here in Los Angeles.  He was one of the first journalists on the scene,  and dropped me a note describing what he saw was a "war zone," a burning  "hell on earth."

Remembering Cerritos 1986
As many of you know, I lived in the neighborhood where the 1986 Aero Mexico plane crash occurred  here in Cerritos, California.

82 people died, including 16 of my neighbors, and that crash took place less than 300 yards from my home...

I can totally understand and relate to the raw emotions this neighborhood is experiencing...

If I can give any advice to the people of San Bruno....remember that you are human and lived through a very "inhumane" tragedy that only a few in this world will ever experience. Your life has been changed forever. Document you emotions.  Start a journal or a blog, and get as much down on "paper" and video as possible.  Also, get a good attorney.  Get SEVERAL GOOD ATTORNEYS.  Don't be afraid to file a lawsuit. You will experience very emotion possible.  Be prepared and stay strong. Time does heal.  Seek as much emotional and spiritual support as possible, and remember, you lived through the worst day of your life.  I am keeping EVERYONE in SAN BRUNO in my thoughts and Prayers this 9/11 Weekend of Remembrance.
