Unhappy What a Horrible Thing to Happen

I couldn't help but cry last night when we saw the coverage on Channel 9. Very sad.

Can you guess what she did? Yep, as she stood there looking at the destruction from a brush fire that wiped out 45 homes,

SHE DROPS HER CIGARETTE ON THE GROUND!

How can someone be so S T U P I D!!! My wife stared at her until she stepped on it, and she continued to stare her down until she picked it up.

The fire marshall is there today to determine the cause of the fire, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say it was another ignoramus with a cigarette.

I posted it earlier, but I'm going to do it again. Charge 'em ten cents deposit per cigarette, and they get it back when they return them. We'll see a lot less of this around, and it literally won't cost them a dime if they pick up after themselves.
Unbelievable! I am shocked at how many times I have seen people throwing their cigarettes out of their car window. During dry times too. Gearhead, your 10 cent per cigarette deposit sounds perfect!
