Went home today to get my cue at lunch. Knew the cue was coming ups. Get home at 12:15 after working at the fire department on their computers. Walk up to the house and I can't see in the picture window, smell something burning when I get to the door. Open the door and smoke just pours out along with my dog. Shut the door and headed back to my truck to get my phone. Call the 911 and get the firemen over. Had just left their place 10 mintues before. My wife had set some clothes on our stove top, and evidently the stove got turned on somehow and caught the basket on fire, the clothes were in flames by the time the firemen found them. Stove is melted nicely, fridge is melted, wall is burned, and a shitload of smoke damage in our house. Staying with the folks.

On the bright side the cue, though only a simple sneaky, looks great. Shaft has some nice dense grain, and can't wait to play with it. Be a nice escape from talking to the insurance agent, the house cleaners, the repair guys.

I'll get some pictures of the cue, maybe of the house as soon as I figure out where my camera is at in my house.

*lol* yeah, I should have told it was part of the burned clothes and plastic that was out on my yard where they were throwing flaming things out my back door. Made a nice bonfire on a cold day.
