I grew up in Saratoga and now 2 of my brothers live in the mountains above Los Gatos, actually right on the summit on Skyline Blvd. Water from a well, septic system, backup generator, water storage tanks for fire fighting. Basic phone service available. TV via satellite. And, if you are standing in the right spot, cell service.

In the mid 90's Philips made a light bulb that turned itself off after 30 minutes. At 29 minutes it would flash a couple of times, then a minute later turn off. It was perfect for me since I always fall asleep while reading. Before this bulb, my lamp would be on all night. I bought as many as I could when it seemed as though they were getting scare, but that was only 3. and my last one burned out in April of this year.

You can say the same about many body parts on any animal. File under trying too hard.

Nothing phallic about that pic!

some security. not only can get out, but can get in too.
