Arrow Wow. Corvette Caught on Fire.
My sister just texted me this picture. It was taken just a few minutes ago in front of our farm. The car overheated and the driver pulled off to the side of the road. The driver is safe and he managed to get a lot of his belongings out of the car before it caught on fire.

That's an old Vette, looks like C4 wheels. I wonder what happened.

I know what happened and it had nothing to do with the Corvette's quality. Due to a large congregation of Michelle's cows nearby, the cumulative effect of the methane gas released by those cows created a large cloud of flammable gas through which the hapless Vette driver unwittingly passed. The heat from his engine and exhaust ignited the cow farts and thus the Corvette was set alight.

Therefore: I blame Michelle. :p
