faster_than_you Posted July 20, 2005 Posted July 20, 2005 Squirrel fires regular occurrence in Canadian border town The Associated Press OSOYOOS, British Columbia — Once again, a squirrel clambering onto a power line has been blamed for a brush fire in this border town north of Oroville, Wash. Firefighters were summoned Monday after a squirrel scrambled up a Fortis Inc. utility pole, got zapped and landed in flames on some dry brush outside a fruit packing business, Fire Chief Ross Driver said. By the time a pumper truck and a bush truck arrived, nearby residents had doused the flames. "This identical incident has happened on the same pole one or two times a year for the past several years," Driver said. Each time, firefighters find a dead, burned squirrel at the base of the utility pole, he said. Driver said he didn't know what Fortis could do to prevent future squirrel-caused fires. Quote

Stonehead Posted July 20, 2005 Posted July 20, 2005 Bomber or terrorist? Is something wrong with this picture? Oversized heads and limbs characteristic of children, other characteristics such as widely dilated eyes, etc. suggestive of child-like appearance----yet bloodied bayonet????? BTW, did ya notice that the Congressman who called for dropping a nuke on Mecca represents Littleton, Colorado? Does it mean anything? Prolly not, but unusual nevertheless. Quote
Dru Posted July 20, 2005 Posted July 20, 2005 Yeah, no one gets upset about killer cuddly snaffle games but when someone makes a sex mod for GTA San Andreas even Hillary Clinton supports censorship. They should ban violence on TV and instead have sex on 24/7. That would make humans less chimp and more bonobo. Quote
