Couple of pics on the OtherNet. One in the article, one on the main page.

They decided not to transport, so it must be minor.

Yeah, they are, but if you're actually driving on 260, the entrance doesn't really say Cox Rd, there's just a sign for Bayview Hills. Cox Road is a strange road because it's also in Huntingtown. I think it's an old road that's been broken up over the years, like Old Solomons Island Road.

Could be the same road broken up or it could be like M F Bowen Rd and M I Bowen Rd in Huntingtown, but the Cox Rds just lost their first names. :shrug:

It's not as funny anymore.

It's not as funny anymore.

I didn't think it was funny to begin with :shrug: And I have a pretty good sense of humor. I just couldn't find anything funny about this situation at all.

A tragedy, yes. Funny, no. My thoughts are with the family that lost their home.

I don't think the situation is funny either. I just thought that the back of the guy's jacket said "#1 in the #2 business", which was funny (to me at least). I've burned my own kitchen back in 2000 with me, my husband and two pets inside and trust me, it's no laughing matter. Wasn't making light of the situation. Sorry.

I didn't mean to come off sounding biatchy either. I've always thought you sounded very sincere in your posting, and it surprised me to see the from you with the pictures.

Any other time, I'd probably find that funny as well. Just with the situation this time, I just couldn't. The pictures made me ill and I wanted to cry for their loss.

None! Where are the scanner ppl when you need them?

 

[nobody really]

it was right outside the development at bayview hills. Anyone familiar with that development, it was the yellow house on the right as you are leaving (not part of the development). It looked pretty bad when I went through there, red cross was there and fire depts were leaving. it looked like it was pretty badly damaged. I understand the two incidents are not related.
