What the hell happened there?

Lightning strike. I don’t know if it hit the transformer directly or if it hit close and ran the underground wire to the meter.

it blew the cover off and melted the meter.

This job has to have been built on an old Indian burial grounds. Nothing has went right on this job. Finished the first part of it two weeks ago and then lightning strikes the power to the lift pump so the sewer system stopped working

Oh and the best part. You can strap a ton of stuff to it. I’m not a beach person and I hate lugging all the crap to and from the beach.

Not my house, but a call we had today. Don't grill or use a smoker on the porch, especially right beside the house.

This is the second outdoor cooking related fire in as many weeks for us. Last folks caught their deck on fire when the greasy chicken thighs flared up. They were fortunate and caught it before it got the house. This dude, not so much.

Mine was coals that dropped when dumping chimney, lump Charcoal is the devil with the small pieces, smoldered long enough to burn a 6” hole between 2 planks

Thats almost too bad ;-). Its amazing how inventive people get when they need acces to their booze.
There's a whole list of very entertaining methods for getting a cork out of a wine bottle with limited supplies...

My personal favorite is to put the bottle in a shoe, bang the shoe on the wall. BTDT.

Does that break the bottle or force the cork out?

The crazy thing about that, is the smoker looks relatively unscathed. It is obvious that is where it started, but other than the grill cover being melted, you wouldnt really know.

Was it a propane smoker, im guessing?

 

[RatLabGuy]

Does that break the bottle or force the cork out?

Well... one or the other will happen.
Which one depends how much of a dingus you are with the shoe usage.

Pro tip: once the cork is out enough to grab it and pull out, STOP. Don't keep wailing on the wall. Because when that bad boy pops out it's gonna be messy. Ask me how I know.
