We’ve reached the point in the seasons where one seems to come and go depending on the day. After a few beautiful days a few weeks ago we have been thrust back into winter like temperatures. Fingers crossed that the precipitation coming the next few days stays as mostly rain with a few stray flakes […]
There are movies where the unsuspecting tour group is somewhere famous when an emergency breaks out. Whether it’s the White House, the Empire States Building, or a hockey arena we get to see them find ways to escape while fighting off bad guys or coming perilously close to death. Yesterday a tour group was touring […]
PANIC!!!! OK, maybe don’t panic just yet. When I saw this story about a semi hauling White Claws burning in the Minnesota metro area a slew of jokes flew into my brain. White Claws do not taste better warmed up. How will bachelorette parties be able to overcome this? If Courtney and Andra don’t have […]
Sometimes quick thinking can keep a disaster from turning into an insurmountable loss. A Chisago County police officer in Minnesota couldn’t stop a car fire at a rural home. He tries to use a fire extinguisher to stop it with no luck. He asks the owner if he has a tow strap and uses his […]
Just this last week my wife and I vacationed up in Lutsen, MN on the North Shore. Gorgeous area surrounded by national and state forests! Now we are not the type to go hiking and camping along the way, but we did enjoy some great hiking for a few days. On our first night there […]

We all love animals and it hurts when they are hurting or in danger. We wouldn’t be human if it didn’t bother us when they’re in peril. The Chicago Fire Department was putting out a fire and trying to get to a trapped feline that had been sitting in the building’s broken out window deciding […]
Not to make too light of a scary situation …. oops, I did it again. Well, at least no one was hurt during a recent fire caused in an interesting way. You might want to check your own home for this possible problem. We too often decorate our spaces and think “doesn’t that look great […]
Because 2020 is 2020 why wouldn’t this happen? A Zamboni at a New York ice arena bursts into flames while on the ice. Somehow the driver has the intestinal fortitude to stay on it and drive it off the ice where the fire is extinguished. No one was hurt and no further damage done. There […]
A tractor-trailer carrying a load of toilet paper caught fire on a Texas highway early Wednesday morning. The news station reports that thousands of toilet paper rolls went up in flames, causing the police to close all westbound lanes of I-20 in southern Dallas County. The trucker told KTVT-TV that he was hauling the load […]
