In Bowie County, Texas, a woman was cleaning up her yard when she encountered a snake. She threw gasoline on the snake and set it on fire.

The burning snake crawled into a pile of brush and set the brush pile on fire, which in turn set the woman's house on fire, destroying the house and damaging a neighbor's house.

The County was considering filing charges, but I'm not sure what the charges would be.

Just when you think you've heard it all..........

PETA will probably go after her for what she did to the snake. Then the EPA for the polution caused by the fire. And the list goes on.

A young gal about a block from me (a renter, imagine that) had a few spiders by the front door of the house, inside,.....sprayed bug killer on them and then lit it on fire. The damage wasn't too bad considering, but still.....Ya gotta wonder.

I saw it. Hate to be involved with the insurance company on this one.

One morning on the way to work, listening to the news, apparently someone over in the Bronx, decided that it would help in starting the car on a cold morning, to take some gasoline and heat it up on the stove !!!!, the ensuing inferno engulfed the apartment and killed the person. The other one I can recall from the same borough was where someone had one of those giant constrictor type snakes as a pet and it apparently wrapped the person up and suffocated them.

Natural selection in the gene pool, Darwin.

Taking the warning labels off everything would be a positive start to what ails us.

Few years ago guy had a woodchuck near his garage. Poured gas in the hole and fired it up. Flaming chuck came out his other hole behind the wood pile against the porch. House garage wood pile and chuck went up in flames. Insurance paid up. no law against idiocy!

In an attempt to get even with the timber company surrounding his farm the genious tied a trailing bundle of rags to the tail of a barncat, set the cat in the woods on the fence line and set the rags on fire. The cat ran immediately under the barn where it lived and the barn two tractors and who knows how much equipment burned up. The cat by some miracle survived unharmed. This all occurred in N. Florida...

Several years ago, Paul Harvey had a story about a man burning trash and caught a mouse on fire. The mouse ran into his house and burned his house down. I guess some days you can't win.

We had some dumb yuppie that lived in a row on row house development that took the hot ashes out of his fireplace, dumped them in his plastic garbage can, then put the can neatley on the side walk against the vinyl siding on his house. Well as u can imagine, the can caught fire, and then his plastic siding! What a moron.

Heard it all. Last night on the news there was something said about a Ohio P.A. wanting to sue that PA ground hog because he got the weather report wrong. That one takes the cake and cost the tax payers $$ to boot for something so stupid

Had a renter do similar- used cardboard box for ashes, left it next to the stove, charred down to the ashes. Her boyfriend helped her move in....wondered if he should put shelf paper on the bottom side of the cupboard shelves as well. Same renter that handed me a full page of MY responsibilities on the house. I don"t miss it.

Sounds like a reptile disfunction, to me!

When the wife and I first got married, we rented a house from a guy that was born and raised in the house but moved to New Jersey. He had a 1962 Corvette in the garage where we rented, and he would come up on weekends to restore it. He finally built a new garage and had it trucked back to NJ. It wasn't long before he called me and said he was working on a gas line and he had gas drip on the trouble light, instant fire. He burned the garage down and burned up the Corvette.
