So a little while ago at work, there was a fire in the opposite end of the building. I was working away when the alarms went off. I stuck my handy pair of ear plugs in and kept working til I knew it wasn't just an alarm malfunction or a test. Then I grabbed my Blackberry and went outside with everybody else.
As the firetrucks pulled up, I called Mr. Ingy to tell him what was happening. His very first response was not to ask, ''Are you okay?'' It was, ''You didn't start it, did you?'' No, Billy Joel, I did not start the fire.
as a man, i think i'm going to side with Mr. Ingy and declare that the phone call might potentially have been the action of a guilty person...a guilty female person, that is.
very funny story!

Message: Thanks for the laugh! Reminds me when we used to be able to smoke at our desks - years ago one of my friends dumped her ashtray into her wastebasket and it started on fire. Like the savior I thought I was (LOL) I stomped on it with my heel (with foot still in it!). Well, not only did I not put the fire out but my pantyhose were destroyed! There were ''runs'' up and down my leg! Not a pretty sight. Guess I was not meant to be anywhere near a disaster! Unfortunately our boss (Mr. Crabbypants) was walking by and put the fire out. That would have been about 40 years ago and I remember it like it was yesterday!

Message: that is EXACTLY what my husband would ask. Not just about fire, but if there was any trouble whatsoever. He will always ask first if I caused it. I'm not sure I'm liking that! LOL

Message: my co-worker sent me a text last nite that I was missing a fire drill at work, in which they had to evacuate the building for 45mins. I responded....* you pulled the alarm, didn't you?* lol
turns out there was a fire hazard but all was well. ...t
