Not tech-related, but this is one of the strangest stories I’ve seen, well, ever!

A man’s house burned to the ground in New Mexico. Nothing too unusual about that, right? Not quite. It turns out the fire was started by...a mouse. That’s the small rodent, mind you, not the computer peripheral. A man saw a mouse in his house and tossed it into a pile of leaves he was burning in his yard. The flaming mouse ran back into the house and lit the whole place ablaze. Now time for the Understatement of the Year, uttered by Captain Jim Lyssy of the local fire department: “I’ve seen numerous house fires, but nothing as unique as this one.” No kidding.
