"it was a robbery"

That hasn't been determined

It's more like 2 kms out of town than 5. We live down near those trees you can see silhouetted and it blew out one of our windows and shook all the soot out of our chimneys. Theory is it was a break-in, whoever did it must qualify for a Darwin Award.

Hahaha, look who's on YouTube!

Some idiot tried to burn down the pub here on Salt Spring Island (a couple of weeks ago).

''Some idiot tried to burn down the pub here on Salt Spring Island''...probably some looney christian teetotaller off his meds with too much time on his hands. Where were you on the said night Ace?

i felt the blast here in Lithgow, and it scared the crap out of me.

I initially thought it was a bomb going off, or the petrol station up the road going up...and i also thought...what if it were a terrorist attack?
