After the Fire.....

Things have been more than a little weird around here since the early hours of Tuesday morning. Not only have residents of The Sack been spending a considerable amount of time out on the street and gathering on porches, but there has been a steady stream of gawkers driving in to view the remains of the burned house. Fire investigators have had a steady presence on the street. People are more than a little unnerved.....

I'm starting to give more credence to the New Urbanism movement after this latest event. It is becoming increasingly clear that the fire was an attack on the residents of this particular house. The culprit was able to carry out this attack without being seen. There may be some truth to the idea that "misbehaviour" may be more likely, due to the absence of passing traffic.....

You might want to include me among those who feel unnerved. Most of all, I'm angry that this crap has happened here. The things that typically occur on The Sack are most often either amusing, puzzling or even frustrating. This......wasn't any of those things......
