    maybe ya'll coulda stopped it in time if you weren't busy taking pictures.... it's normally pretty hard to do your job with a camera in your hand... (unless your job description includes a camera)

    it was a training fire, the house was given to us to torch a developer wanted the land and didnt want to pay to take down the house. so we remove it for free and get some good training in the process.
