  • Massive Blackout Caused By Dog!

    What a headline!

    Dog urinating caused mass blackout
    October 23, 2006

    SHOCKED Gary Davies saw his dog erupt in flames — after it peed on a live power cable.

    Bailey the Staffordshire bull terrier also cut power to 148 homes by cocking a leg against a faulty pylon.

    Gary, 42, said: “There was an almighty explosion and the whole street lit up. I turned round and the dog was on fire.”

    Power was off for five hours in Middlestone Moor, Co Durham.

    Last night Bailey was recovering at home after being treated for burns.

    "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

    John Stuart Mill (Look him up )

                I'm sorry, I nearly fell down on the ground dieing from laughter when I read that part.

                      Flaming Shish-Ka-Dog?

                      I wonder if the owner put the fire out by covering the dog.....




                      ....with a rug, which melted to it....




                      ....and he then had to call .....










                      ....a Rug Doctor....... :brick:

                        No wonder people rip on the Browns fans here.

                        Knew they were up to no good.

                          Considering a man on my brother's job was literally blown to pieces when touching a high-voltage wire (he works for TXU), I'm very surprised that the dog survived.
