glad you are ok Cass

wow, glad for no fire!

DJ, I'm very sorry for your loss. But on the other hand, I really love your family. What a wonderful way to remember him.

sj, I'm so sorry for your friends. That's a terribly tragic experience, and I wish them all the peace and comfort in the world.

Zen, hunky firefighters are never a bad thing, mere shingles are a happy reason to have hunky firefighters in your house. I'm glad it wasn't a rabid possum--which can too climb, BTW.

Laura, I'm glad you're all through with the testing of doom, and it's wonderful to see your font here. You're missed when you're absent.

bonny, my goodness. You were so much less confrontational than I would have been--and I *hate* confontation. At the least I'd have swept up my critter and flounced out the door, probably laying down a paint-stripping screed as I went. Animals and kids, man. Don't frak with them in my presence. I'm glad the owner responded positively to your complaints, and it's wonderful that the other employees have added their support, as well.

The rest of you? Smooches. I can't remember everything I'd intended to respond to. Aims? I hope you're feeling better. Take excellent care of yourself and get over this mess. You other sickies? Likewise (pushes tea and chicken soup through the interpipe).

Cass, you should become a fan of Not Being on Fire on Facebook.

Jebus Cass, I know you're a firebug, but there are limits, and I think you just hit one! Reminder: when one smells like jet (or racing) fuel is *not* the time to set water on fire!

Also, I'm extremely glad Cass and dad o' Cass are safely deplaned and away from possible 'splosions. Boom bad.

I thought you liked fire, Cass.

I notice she doesn't say HOW it caught fire -- just that it did.

I thought it was awesome as well when Kara told me. It's a shame we've lost so many significant Morgans that stuff like this is fewer and further between.

Thanks for all the hugs and thoughts. I still have to call my dad in a bit and let him know. Sad I'll have to tell him Bo is dead, will like telling him about the arrangements.

DJ, I'm really sorry for your loss.

I'm glad it wasn't a rabid possum--which can too climb, BTW.

Yeah, okay, a little - but he'd have to be Spiderman-Possum to get up to the vents to my attic! I knew it had to be the wind, but my lizard brain was convinced we were about to have to fight off a giant crazed possum-raccoon-coyote-thing. And the cats are just no help at all in those situations.

The SyFy movie plots just keep coming.

eta Meant to say also, Cass, glad you and your dad are Not On Fire.

The Morgans are awesomesauce.

Cass, happy you and your dad escaped being on fire.
