Hero Dog

Baby the pit bull is being hailed a hero after it rescued not only a family from their burning home but also the pets. The two sisters were woken up by Baby barking and jumping on them just as the fire was shooting down the hallway, giving them just enough time to escape. After seeing them to safety, Baby raced back into the burning building and rescued his 5 other canine companions, one of which he had to grab by the neck and drag out . I’m guessing he’s gonna be getting some Scooby snacks.

Fondue

You should take some crackers

A tunnel in Norway has been closed after a truck carrying nearly 30 tons of caramelized  brown goat cheese caught alight. So far the fire has been burning for 5 days. Hello scientists, can’t you turn goat cheese into fuel? The tunnel is expected to remain closed for several weeks.

Guns and Weddings Don’t Mix

OK people, can you quit with the celebratory gunfire at weddings before someone gets …. oh never mind. At least 25 wedding guests at a Saudi Arabian wedding have been killed after gunfire brought down power lines and started a massive blaze inside a tent.

Squirrel’s Revenge

and they think I’m nuts!!!!

OK, here’s the thing dude who used a propane torch to skin a squirrel before eating it. Don’t friggin torch it on a wooden deck in an apartment complex. Now there are some really pissed off residents. The squirrel torching resulted in eight apartments being totally destroyed and 32 uninhabitable. No word on how the squirrel tasted but I am guessing,  a tad over done.

Wish You Were Here

Dear Mom and Dad,

Just a little note to say thank you for the cruise to the Seychelles as I know how much you guys worried when you realized the ship was from the same fleet as the Costa Concordia. But no need to fret, we have avoided the reefs. Last night I smelled what I thought was a barbeque but it turned out to be a fire in the engine room. The captain turned off all the lights so we decided to play hide and seek with our emergency torches. That was so much fun. Tonight the captain wants us to play spot the pirate ships from the deck which I am really looking forward to. The water has been rather choppy so I have avoided eating, which is great because I think I have lost a few pounds and anywho they are only serving dry bread and crackers because they don’t want us getting sick from the food going off in the refrigerators. I tell you this crew are so thoughtful. Evidently we will be floating adrift for a few days so we can experience some uncharted territories. If we are lucky we may even get to see some elusive Somali pirates.I am avoiding using my phone to text you so I have enough battery life to take a few photos of them. I sure hope they look like Johnny Depp. OK, I better go as it is my turn to use the bucket. Evidently the toilets don’t work without power. Who knew? Oh and mom and dad, don’t bother picking me up at the terminal, I might be a few weeks late.

Flaming Whitney Houston Vigil

A Whitney Houston fan accidentally set her house on fire after lighting candles  during a vigil for the dead singer. Now her living room is a melted mess.

Flash Fire of the Face

OMG, did you know that your face can catch fire during routine surgery? Seriously , a full on face flash fire. Seems there are between 550 and 650 surgical flash fires a year. The fires are usually caused by tools like lasers giving off a spark and then setting off a chain reaction thanks in part to flammable liquids and oxygen used in  surgery.
