Ok enough with the words here are some pictures and a news paper article.

Holy sh*t man. Glad you are okay.

Did you have insurance?

[Otto.]

That's some scary stuff. I'm glad you are okay, and I hope the foot heals quick.

What's with the "Welcome Home" sign?

[breadbox]

Glad You are alright. The smell of house fires is something you will never forget.

I hope it all works out for you.

[sbird1]

That's crazy. Your foot looks like when I broke mine a few years back. I broke 4 of the 5 bones in the middle of my foot. What did you do? Glad you're ok.

ive got medical insurance, but no renters. we didnt really lose anything personal. just a couple old sofa. I went to see a specialst today for my foot and it appears that i didnt break anything, just tore a few ligaments.

[Jesda]

DAMN. Your foot looks like a cantelope! Glad you weren't barbecued.

According to the newspaper article, the house had a fire sprinkler system that prevented too much damage?

I did not realize that a private home residence could have sprinkler systems installed ... hmmm. Was this an apartment building with multiple units?

It's becoming quite popular now actually, and in some residential zones, sprinkler systems are part of town code. It's a really good thing in my opinion, because it really does save a hell of a lot more than you would think at the onset of a fire.

nope its a single family home. the fire fighters said we would of lost the whole house if we didnt have the sprinklers.

But in all seriousness, glad you're ok and the loss was minimized.
