Burn the house?

Sooooooo I want to know why are “we” (and by we I mean law enforcement) going to burn the bomb house down if we can’t identify all of the substances that Jakubec has inside?  Are the authorities 100% positive that burning them is safe for the nearby homes and ummm PEOPLE?!??!  Can I request the “burnin’ down the house” (I am funny!) thing be done on my day off??  That house is too close to where I work!  I also want it to be Selena’s (Escondido PD) day off…. I also want a live video feed (I am really nosy and want to watch from a distance too)  wow… I have a lot of demands… I wonder who I can call??  HEY hey hey!  I heard that!!
Anyway, here is the update from November 30, 2010

ESCONDIDO, Calif., Nov. 30 (UPI) — San Diego County authorities said Tuesday they will burn down a house where a large collection of homemade explosives was discovered this month.
Sheriff Bill Gore told residents at a community meeting Tuesday night the house in Escondido was too cluttered with junk and potentially volatile materials to be cleared out.
“It is also not habitable,” Gore said. “The most effective way is to destroy the residence by fire.”
The San Diego Union-Tribune said Gore illustrated his concerns with photos of the home where George Jakubec allegedly had several pounds of various explosives squirreled away for reasons that remained unclear. Federal authorities have said the house was one of the largest explosives caches ever found in the United States.
Jakubec was arrested Nov. 18 after one of his alleged devices exploded in the backyard and injured a visiting landscaper.
The plan to destroy the house will involve building walls of Sheetrock around the property and closing nearby Interstate 15 in both directions, KGTV-TV, San Diego, reported.

Updating My SEO Because Even the Internet Needs a Good Declutter

If you’ve been poking around peanutbutterandwhine.com lately and thought, “Huh, something feels different,” congratulations. Your instincts are sharp and possibly paranormal.

I’m deep in the process of updating my SEO. Not the glamorous kind of update where confetti falls and Google personally thanks me, but the gritty, behind-the-scenes kind where old posts get dusted off, links get refreshed, and keywords are gently coaxed into behaving better. Think less makeover montage, more haunted house cleanup.

While revisiting early posts, I discovered something unsettling. Many of the original photos and videos have completely vanished. Not broken links. Not corrupted files. Gone. Poof. Into the digital ether. This can only confirm one thing: peanutbutterandwhine.com is haunted.

There is no other explanation. Sure, it could be old hosting changes, platform migrations, or me being wildly optimistic about my organizational skills a decade ago. But let’s be honest. It’s ghosts. Internet ghosts. Possibly annoyed by my early font choices.

So here I am, updating old posts with new images, clearer formatting, better internal linking, and SEO-friendly structure so Google can finally understand what I’ve been yelling into the void all these years. I’m also making sure posts connect to each other logically, like linking back to my ongoing fun stuff such as the Monthly $50 Your Way Giveaway right here:

Internal links help readers stick around, help search engines crawl the site, and possibly appease the spirits living in my archives.

I’m also adding relevant external links to trustworthy sources, because Google appreciates good neighbors. For example, SEO best practices straight from the pros over at Moz:

The goal isn’t to rewrite history. It’s to make sure my content is still useful, readable, and visible in a world where the internet changes faster than my craft room fills up.

If you stumble across a refreshed post, missing photos, or suspiciously improved clarity, just know it’s intentional. And if something disappears again overnight… I’ll be lighting a sage bundle and updating my alt text.

Stay tuned. The ghosts are watching. 👻
