. . . and not even any Brownie points to show for it.

What an amateur! A real man would use a flame thrower.

How did they hear about my cousin?!

Ask a man to do woman's work and...no, I didn't say that.

We all know he did it on purpose so the wife wouldn't nag him anymore.

Hmmm...a featherduster/blowtorch, gotta get me one of those.

Does he use Cherry Bombs to clean the toilet?

My dad used to kill spiders in the basement by pouring lighter fluid on them and setting them ablaze.

Yes, that looks as insane typed on my screen as it does to your eyes.

My father was otherwise a kind and sensible man. He just really hated spiders. My mother did not know of this little habit. I still can't believe he did this in front of us kids.

(Dave, he would have loved your Science Fair strumpetfest! Bring on the Mentos, Diet Coke and goggles!)

Here's the kind of guy you want to go on a beer guzzling hunting trip with, right?

Well, I'm willing to bet the cobwebs are indeed gone.

He was cleaning "external eaves" so that was not "housework" it was "home maintenance", like getting the leaves out of the gutters, and that's a traditional male job.

It's pretty sad that before I even looked at the story I figured a blowtorch was involved.

...several layers of roofing... Nice - too lazy to take the old roof off when re-roofing. Guess what happens next?

*snork* @ Siouxie - that's exactly what he's doin' - screwing it up so the wife doesn't ask him to do it again.

I got posted. Woo-hoo! I'll take third billing, no problemo.

"A Coweta County man who set his house on fire while cleaning out cobwebs with a blowtorch won't be charged, Fire Chief Bill Haynes told CBS 46 Thursday afternoon.

I take it stupidity is a criminal offense in Georgia?

He'd have been fine, but the fire got into the roof through the holes created when he killed the spiders with his 30.06.
