Do Submarines Burn?

 

we all live here, please don’t set our home on fire

Ah summer on the coast of Maine!  Rocky coastline, fresh blueberry ice cream, tasty lobster rolls, white sandy beaches, and submarines ablaze.

Next week, a Maine judge will hold a probable cause and bail hearing for Casey James Fury charged with setting a submarine and a ship on fire. The US Navy investigators believe that he set the fire because he didn’t want to go to work (he worked on the ship). So, take this as a lesson. If you don’t want to go to class, instead of lighting the building on fire, just call in sick.
