Great moments in laundry


From this morning's Centre Daily Times:

Small fire caused by socks heating on stove

July 16, 2011 6:50pm EDT
Socks heating in a pan on a stove caused a small fire in a College Township mobile home Friday morning.

State College police said a neighbor reported smoke coming from the mobile home at 620 Centre Ave. When police arrived, no one was home and police had to force their way inside. That's when they discovered a pair of socks heating in a pan on the stove in the kitchen.

There were no damages to the mobile home.

Firefighters from Alpha Fire Company extinguished the fire.

Most people would just hang their laundry outside to dry, especially when it's in the high 80s and sunny.
