Current Ramblings
Tuesday, December 30, 2003
An interesting thing happened this, um, noon. When I went to take a shower at 11:30, I noticed there was a fire chief car (no, not a Lamborghini) in a parking space behind the building with its lights on. Odd. So I took my shower and then turned on the 12-o'clock news. They cut away to a live report of a fire in a Grandview Heights apartment building. And there they were, reporting from two buildings over, where there had been a fire in a ground-floor apartment. It didn't seem to have spread too far, though it really did a job on that one apartment. It was just so surreal seeing them reporting live from right over there, by the dumpster behind that building with the door. The kicker was the guy with the shopping cart who walked by while they were shooting. (There's a Kroger right up the street.) Just half a minute later I heard him rattle by my window. Hee hee...
Oh, I found a short article on the channel's web site. Though they call it Upper Arlington. We're right where the two neighborhoods meet.
