Thanks Phred! I know my alarm works--sometimes it gets set off when my mom cooks But we check the batteries annually.

I am so sorry about that puppy. Poor baby And all these stories are just scary. Kingrattus, you should be proud for what you did. (It seems you ae anyways! ) Good job

I just remembered about this--we were all over at my aunt and uncles' house when the doorbell rang. This old man was there and told them that their grabage can was on fire. The winds were strong and the fire was spreading. Ashes flew into the house. It was scary My uncle grabbed the hose and just put it out as quick as he could. There are still burn marks on the carpet on their stairs. Thank God that man warned them or else who knows where it could have spread.

Fire is so scary. I remmeber we had to do a lab in science and my friend had to light this match. She got so scared it was gonna catch on fire, she flicked it and then shot it across the room in panic. Luckily, she didn't succeed in making a flame
