The Lighter Side



A good news story that's so odd it has to be true....
 
Laura Palladino wanted to find something relaxing online, and ended up watching a farm's live webcam footage of a sleeping pig. Imagine her horror when the pig knocked over a lamp and started a fire before her very eyes! Laura realized she was the only person in the world who had seen it happen and sprang into action.
