I just read this interesting story on the BBC site about an incident in New Mexico:
Blazing mouse sets fire to house A US man threw a mouse he had found in his home onto a pile of burning leaves - only to see it run away and burn his house down. Luciano Mares, 81, of Fort Sumner, New Mexico, found a mouse in his home and wanted to get rid of it. “I had some leaves burning outside, so I threw it in the fire, and the mouse was on fire and ran back at the house,” he said. Though no one was injured, the house and everything in it was destroyed. “I’ve seen numerous house fires, but nothing as unique as this one,” Fire Department Captain Jim Lyssy said. New Mexico has seen several major blazes after unseasonably dry and windy conditions which have destroyed 10 homes and devastated more than 53,000 acres (21,200 hectares) of land.

Cool blog you got here. BTW, do you know that “Instant Karma” is an Indian band? I am sure you know that the word Karma is an Indian word meaning FATE.
Do check my blog if and when you have time.
