Seen on the newswires:
Thick black smoke billowed from a fire Wednesday on the White House compound in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building.
The blaze appeared to be located in Vice President Dick Cheney’s suite of ceremonial offices on the second floor of the building. Cheney and President Bush were across the street in the West Wing of the White House when the blaze broke out. It appeared to be under control within an hour.
I have to admit the first thing that crossed my mind when reading about the fire was wondering if Cheney and his minions accidentally started out the fire due to overworking paper shredders.
