    Oops - Catty Where are You?

    I'm not skilled at including links but I was sure you would have put a link in to the story of how Kurt Browning the figure skater all but burnt his house down with a leaf blower.....

    Well...my friends and employers at the cat boarding kennel where I work had their retirement home completely burn down on Sunday.

    It was a long process of several years and couldn't even be lived in yet - it had the garages and a phone and walls. There was one delay after another, and then a dispute with the builder which was dragging on in arbitration...it's like something was saying NO to the project all this time.

    They had insurance. Kurt did too and he is rich. And stupid, by the sounds of what he did!

    OT - but prayers for my employers appreciated. TY.

    Wonder if he will remember to put the car windows up the next time it rains?

    Prayers for your employers, Candace. I'm glad no one was hurt.

    They sound much more responsible and deserving than Kurt Bonehead!

    Candace that is dreadful news. To lose the house after all that work and frustration they must be devastated. Perhaps with everything that has gone on - this may give them a new start on their retirement home.

    Leaf blowers are evil. EVIL! Especially at 6AM on a friday! That's when our "gardeners" fire them up. They are loud and smelly and dangerous apparently. Ugh!
