Phred -ROTFLMAO!!! I thought there must be stories like that in the fire department.

Ok: Spending money:
We came home one night with the car when a cat in suicidal intentions ran on the street. My husband braked but if he hadn't turned the wheel and hit the curbstone, he wouldn't have a chance to miss it. So the tire and the rim were broken and all that was around 100 US$. We still see the cat most of the evening in front of the house where it lives and think it was well worth it.
