    So they still have not determined what cause the fire?
    Can towers become overloaded to the point where they can ignite?

    I think BOBO shifted the Fire
    on April Fool's
    So now BOBO has to move the Fire
    since it's now April 2nd

    If you looked far enough in the distance, you could see the Verizon "can you hear me now" guy, smiling and lauging! But dont worry, the Sprint trench coat guy kicked his @$$

    Not only the Cingular guy, but there were also reports of a Nextel sponsered NASCAR doing a drive bye!
