Rescued!

Once you escape from a burning building, you never, ever go back into it. That's a good rule. There are, of course, exceptions to every rule:

The flames broke out while six adults and two young children were watching TV. Everyone quickly made it outside safely. But then Walter Serpit, who walks with a cane, rushed back into the burning building to save something near and dear to him.

"I told them to get the kids out and everything, and me myself, being an alcoholic, I was trying to get my beer out," he said. "You feel me?"

Serpit managed to rescue several cans of beer from the fire without getting burned.

Whew! That was close.

Seriously, folks: never go into a burning building. Certainly not for a stupid case of beer.

Now... Hennessy Paradis Imperial? Have momma soak you with the hose and get your flame on, cuz yer baby needs savin'!
