They're missing the can of gasoline and 5 gallon drum of chlorine!

Maybe a big box full of foam shipping "peanuts"...........

keyless porcelain wall sconce with a 100 watt bulb would fix it right up! :mrgreen:

Thanks Jar... no one believes me that people store crap under stairs..

I made the guy read the print on the insulation that required it to be covered.

Oh come on... Looks like they have a jug of anti-freeze. Isn't that the same as a sprinkler system?

Now I remember, it is prohibited because it could explode.

Where is the gas furnace with the paint brushes soaking in the open mason jar of gasoline sitting on it?

And yes I have fought that fire mid afternoon and the kids just did make it down the steps.

There is a 5 story motel on the beach in Clearwater Beach, FL that I've stayed at several times. I noticed once that there actually was a lawnmower with gasoline stored at grade level under the south stairway. I reported it to the city.

Missing drywall and who knows what is in the anti-freeze bottle.
