Thank goodness for alert passersby.
Everybody: please check your smoke alarms. And if you don't have them, get them. Now.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Ann, that's a ferret.
Glad you're okay, Frank. Hope you find a good laundromat and dry cleaner to get rid of the smoke smells.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Frank, I'm so glad you're alright.
I sent you an email with some information. If your profile addy isn't good, please let me know and I'll resend.

Thank God you made it out safely, Frank. I'm sorry to hear about your landlord, and of course about the forced move situation.

Blessings on you and what's left of your house, Frank. I guess I'm going to put cancelling the renter's insurance under false economy.
