She is Nut, who swallows the sun in the evening and gives birth to it in the morning. She holds the Nut Hand. She is a woman who knows how to use her Nut. But while she is Nut, she is not a Wing-Nut. Am I paigow to her Spanky? Oh, nuts!

But, while I am a one-nut squirrel, I am not a sock but a primary. And, Penutske, What's this pony stuff?

Acorns!

Anyone thinking of going to Crocker Galleria for lunch, please change your plans.

Firefighters and police evacuated several blocks around the Ralph Lauren clothing store in the Crocker Galleria area, said fire spokesman Peter Howes. The incident happened at Post and Kearny. NBC11 has confirmed that an electrical transformer that exploded under the street caused the blast.

NBC11 News reporter Cheryl Hurd is at the scene and says police have brought in bomb-sniffing dogs as a precaution.

Tom Demartini, a construction worker who was sitting in his truck outside the store, said he heard the explosion and saw the sidewalk rise up six or seven inches.

"It sounded like a big 'poof,' then there was a lot of smoke," Demartini said. "One woman looked like she was badly burned."

The explosion seemed to come from underground, he said.

Mariana Hernandez from PG&E told NBC11 News via phone that the blast could likely be from an electrical issue under the road.

Several witnesses have been calling NBC11 News to report they heard and felt the explosion and thought it may havbe been an earthquake.

Scores of police officers and firefighters closed off the area and shut down several blocks as evacuated office workers milled about in the aftermath.

It was cool. The lights went out. Then there were sirens. And then I had to go to a stupid meeting.

The sirens have not stopped and now there are helicopters. Why is ATF involved?

The helicopters are gone. But the sirens remain.

General question (not just to RT) -- can you stop to admire along the length, or are there not places to pull over for significant stretches? I'm particularly interested in the more southern part since I'll be starting from LA.

And, wow, thanks to everyone for the input. If I do this, I'm planning to take at least one, and maybe 2, vacation days (for a total of 3-4 days), but not more than that because I'm a hoarder.

Did you take the trip? If so, I hope you didn't stop at the Gaviota State Park to let your dog stretch its legs*.

I know this is off topic, but if I post in a more apropo place, I will defeat the purpose of congratulating penske on his QUadfecta!

There should be a prize for this accomplishment.
