The roof, the roof is on fire

It was the first day back to school this semester. It hasn't rained or snowed for months. The first clue was my own son calling me saying, "Don't forget to watch out for fires." Then for some reason someone pulled the fire alarm at school today. I'm glad it was a false alarm. Sounds like a spoof I heard on Saturday night live, "Don't forget to check on the baby."

Then on the way back home from school I saw it the fire trucks were lined up. This was colossal. Everybody in the neighborhood was outside, even the guy with the pajamas. All kinds of super heroes come out when there is a fire. My son came home from school before I did, and he smelled smoke. He called the fire department as soon as he saw fire. He said the fire was too scary even to take a picture of that it looked like something out of the book of Revelations.

When I got home most of the smoke had died down. The only ones left at the fire were the firemen and lawyers, real estate brokers and that guy with the pajamas. People around Seoul are still pretty hungry for land. The story here is that the owner was not there when piled up dust behind the kimchee refrigerator started a fire. Sounds as likely as any story. I'm just glad that no one was injured and my son called the fire station on time. Our building is the next one over and our front porch is made of wood so we would have been in big trouble.

If there is smoke there is fire and nip it in the bud.

Have a warm and safe evening,

Love,

Oh my, I'm glad your son knew what to do and called the fire dept. That would be frightening to see a large fire close to your own home! Glad it wasn't your building!

Harsh but fortunately the dude in pajamas did not dissapoint. That is how you know it was a cool fire and not some trash fire. Glad your kid is more collected than the grown ups it seems.

Dude,

He educated in call the fire department and stop drop and roll not look out the window and drool in your monkey costume.

Classic^^ Only you can prevent forest fires.
