On my way home from work today I was waiting at a stop light to turn left when a fire truck was coming from the direction I was about to turn. Well it took the right turn a little too fast and a fire extinguisher came flying off and rolled kinda fast towards my car. It hit underneath my car then rolled to the car next to me and logged under the tire. The guy next to me got out of his to dislodge it and it sounded like it was open. It was hissing, sorta. Surprisingly the guy put the extinguisher in his car! I would be afraid the thing would explode or something.

Luckily my car has no damage, but it was kinda scary seeing this thing come at my car like that.

Speaking of fire extinguishers...

Last week I was a dumdum and started pre-heating some cooking oil and then wandered off and forgot about it until the smoke alarm was going off. I had to use an extinguisher on the fire. Afterwards, I've had to replace the stove-fan and had to pay for a cleaning company to come clean all the soot and extinguisher residue out of the kitchen. There was soot on everything in my whole damn apartment so the cleaning process has been on-going. I had a can of that Crisco non-stick spray stuff by the stove-top so I'm really surprised it didn't explode.

So yeah... between the repairs and the vaccuum I bought to help clean, there goes my tax incentive... up in smoke.

Do you have one of those lingering smells now?  Like burnt popcorn or something?
