I've never laughed so hard in my life. Goat, that was too funny.

Karma's a bitch ...
you left to walk the appalachian trail
you can feel your heart as smooth as a snail
the mountains your darlings
but better to love than have something to scale

I've heard of a "house on fire" ...but never a "mouse on fire". Guess in this case it was one in the same thing.

Did the paramedics manage to save the mouse?

unfortunately it appears the story was seriously wrong - see link: http://www.thenewmexicochannel.com/n...14/detail.html
Of course he's going to take back the story. He's now famous as an idiot scumbag.
I had an obnoxious brother-in-law once who used to laugh about how "funny" it was the time he dipped a cat in gasoline and lit it on fire.Originally Posted by the goat
The cat ran into a barn and burned down both the barn and the farmer's winter supply of hay for his dairy cows.
Weary
That dude was still an idiot to be burning leaves in high winds in New Mexico during a drought and a period of rampant wildfires. He's a moron by either vector..

Be witty in your cruelty.
Reports that the initial report was seriously wrong may be seriously wrong!

A blow struck for mice everywhere?
it appears the mouse did get the last laugh!
like QHShowoman said.... Karma.... it's a beautiful thing...
I hate to be a spoilsport, and I'm no great defender of mice, but I find it hard to laugh at a story that involves someone purposely burning an animal to death.

Mice are vermin, Colter. They serve a purpose, but not when they're trying to nibble me to death in a shelter. They deserve to die. Perhaps an illustration will help:Originally Posted by Colter

I found the story of the guy who killed something like 30 mice with a mousetrap baited with peanut butter overnight in a shelter seriously hardcore. That guy deserves a medal as far as I'm concerned.
I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.

Mice, rats, meadow voles, shrews, etc.... are generally referred to as 'buffer species' in that they can reproduce very rapidly and provide a constant and renewable supply of food for a variety of higher organisms. Nothing wrong with their demise...PROVIDED....
THAT THE ORGANISM WHO KILLS THEM CONSUMES THEM!!
An old adage says: You can kill anything you want here: provided you eat what you kill and kill nothing you won't eat.
Bon apetit.
