The Final Fire
May 31, 2006Every so often when I look out a 4th floor window at work I see a lot of smoke coming up from down the street. Today I mentioned to one of my co-workers that if someone saw that much smoke in a city in America they would call the fire department. My co-worker said after a small pause: “That is the final fire. They do burials there.”
I prodded him further and I’m pretty sure he isn’t putting me on. There’s actually a crematorium down the road. Apparently it results in quite a bit of smoke.
