Unhappy Hurricane killed a Cruiser

I was watching the Today Show this morning, and they were showing pictures of damage from Hurricane Isabel. When they got the the Washington DC area, they stated that a tree had come down, taking out power lines which landed on a car and caused it to burn. Sadly, the burning car in question was a PT Cruiser. The pictures showed the flames still burning. Not a pretty sight. I'm glad my Cruiser couldn't see the images, as it would probably have left permanent psychological scars.

Man-you caught a break on that! If there were a tornado here, it would be on the one day I brought the dreamer to work.

I saw that poor PT on Channel 4 news my Cruiser heard about it (PT ESP)!! and was very upset last night when I went out to check on the outside of the house. NO damage to the house (whew, Thank you GOD) Just a lot of small twigs and leaves blown about.
