Hm… **VunderBob** was just this week involved in putting off a fire in a pig farm, but if it was in Serbia there is something he’s been hiding from us?

Could we be witnessing the first days in the plague that will one day be known as Self-Inflaming Pork Disease?

Procrastination is a dangerous indulgence for an arsonist.

Anyhow, isn’t it likely that the three little pigs were simply demonstrating another advantage of brick construction over straw or wood?

there were no witnesses!
