The oldest known continuously burning fire is an underground coal fire
in New South Wales, Australia. This fire apparently started over
2,000 years ago when lightning struck a large coal seam at a point
where it reached the surface of the earth. Today the fire is more
than 500 feet (152 meters) underground, and is still slowly eating
away at the coal
There are also long-burning coal fires in the eastern USA and in
China. These fires were started by lightning or by accidents in coal
mines. Some towns have been evacuated because of the danger of
collapse as the underground coal seams slowly burn away.
Underground coal fires are almost impossible to put out. They burn
very slowly, using up the scant oxygen in the depths, but not going
out because they stay very hot. Despite their slow burn rates,
underground coal fires are so extensive that they are estimated to
produce 2-3% of the world's carbon dioxide output.
Underground fires are a problem for miners, and an environmental risk:

so far has been ok really.We all went down to the lake house for the past few days...did some boating,fired off fireworks,cooked and ate great food..played some music,and sat around a BIG bon fire.
And,the weather was beautiful.
Damn good thing too,otherwise I would have most likely moped around the house,alone,feeling sorry for myself.Im grateful that I have the friends that I do.
I have to laugh,because they wont leave me alone for a SECOND!

the 9 rate bothered you more than you cared to admit Obsidianbuderfly.Instead of dishonouring someone over it,why dont you simply fix the giant picture so people can see it.
First you lied aqbout my profile,then admited it was fine.Then you lie about the rate not bothering you...my honour says otherwise.
Jeeze.
I will give you a bit of advice...I just lost my dad,and I really dont feel like dealing with someone like you.You want a different rate than a nine? Fix your damn page.
Otherwise,get over it and let me alone.

nothing was pulling me out of grief,not even for a minute.
Then came an invite to jam.The first night,I didnt play worth a crap.But it did bring a smile to my face,even if it was only to laugh at myself for sounding so bad.
Got invited to play last night.It felt good to let all this go for a little while..it really did.
And we knocked out about 15,20 tunes ,all the way through.Not bad,considering I havent played with this dude before until the other night.
The thing is,I came home with a set list and tender fingers.
Guess Im officially playing again.
Thank you11:53 May 14 2012

my friends for standing by me while I go through the loss of my father.I know I havent been talking much lately,but I want you to know that when I log in and see your messages or that you have visited,it does wonders for my heart.And,I think of you guys a lot.It will be nice when I can smile again.Even better when I can laugh.Until then,the only real comfort Im finding is in my horses and your visits.

We have all been working together really well getting everything ready for Friday's dad ceremony.My older son wrote a song dedicated to dad that he will sing and play, while I accompany him on bass.So that in itself is wonderful to me.Also,there have been a lot of really wonderful things happening,so I cannot be sad, except for my own selfeshness of wanting him here.That ,Im afraid,might take quite sometime.
Not only did my dad teach us by example how to live,he taught us how to die.
And he will be getting his much earned 21gun salute and taps.
A girl can never ask any more than that.
