Well, the Devil went down to Georgia, and didn't get too hot. So like many before him, he tried his luck at the Hotel California.

666??? Not a good sign for those within that Ring of Fire. Still, this too shall pass, and then we'll all know that There's Nothing As Cold As Ashes, After The Fire Is Gone.

Best of luck to everyone out that way. Keep a sense of hope and humor, sometimes that's all you've got to fight with.

LOL...i drove 666ft to work today before i drove 667 ft and ultimately the 5 miles it took me to get there.
