A peeing cat, not fire, caused smoke in Pa. home
 
From Associated Press

NEW CASTLE, Pa. (AP) — One western Pennsylvania fire department learned that there's not necessarily fire wherever there's smoke.

New Castle's assistant fire chief Jim Donston tells The Associated Press that firefighters were called when smoke was coming from an electrical outlet, only to find that happened because the family's cat urinated into the outlet.

The New Castle News first reported the incident Friday and Donston supplied more details to the AP.

The assistant chief says a Columbia Gas worker was at the house checking for a possible leak when he noticed the smoking outlet and called the fire department Wednesday about 7:30 p.m.

Donston says firefighters "found the receptacle wet from cat urine" and shut off the electrical supply to that circuit.

(Rumors are not true that the family served a Dr. Seuss dinner the following night, "Green Eggs and Cat")

Dear Count,

I know you must receive thousands of messages like this, but I just wanted you to know that some of my favorite childhood memories are about watching Creature Feature.

My sister and I had our weekly ritual of popping a giant bowl of popcorn and settling in for your late night frights and laughter. To this day, we still reminisce fondly about you and your program.

I’m so happy to see the continued success you are enjoying with fans both new and old.

Thank you for all the gruesome giggles and hair-raising hilarity.

Sincerely,

Mark S. Sanders


Dear Count;

I received the "I Didn't Get This For Christmas" contest prize today and I couldn't be more pleased!  Thank you very much, this is sincerely appreciated! Good health and continued success to you and yours.

Sincerest Regards;

Brad D. Green
 


Dear Count Gore De Vol,

Thank you so much for the prize of the signed copy of "Every Other Day Is Halloween".
It is so awesome man, I have watched it several times, including all  the extras.
It makes you feel like a kid again, and especially around this time of  year when we all feel a little younger.

I apologize for the delay in notifying you of it's arrival (it arrived on the 20th of Dec. BTW  :-), but with the holidays and getting sick, it was crazy, thankfully I had the DVD in time to see me through!

I did not have the pleasure of seeing you on TV when I was a kid, but after watching "Every Other Day Is Halloween", I feel like I did!  
Down here in Denton/Dallas TX area we had our own monster TV host, and all the great feelings from that just multiplied my enjoyment of this DVD.

One last thing, I did happen to discover you on the web about three years ago and have been watching "Creature Feature the Weekly Web Program" ever since, A big THANK YOU for doing what it is you do and
all the new memories!

Most sincerely,  Stephen (but you can call me Steve!) Wallace

P.S.  This is the second time I have won on the "Weekly Web Program",  the other time was in 2009, in your "Space Opera" contest and I still cherish the copy of "Ender in Exile" by Orsen Scott Card you sent!

P.S.S.  I framed the letters letters too!  "May all your blood be warm!" sir.
