So there I am watching T.V. tonite waiting on my parents to come over and hang out. They arrive and my wife comes in the dining room and says in a calm voice, "Daniel, our patio furniture is on fire." I said, "What the hell are you talking about?" She says again in a calm voice, "Our...patio...furniture...is...on...fire." At this point I jump up and run to the back door to see a couple of flames and a big black puddle of plastic underneath the used to be fake wicker furniture. I grabbed the water hose and extinguished the small fires that were still burning. My mom and dad both said "Man you are lucky the whole house didn't catch on fire."

My wife had put some citronella candles, that were bought for our wedding that we didn't use, in some pots that had some small plants in them. Didn't think nothing was going to happen. These candles came from Big Lots. Now I gotta figure out how I'm gonna get the melted plastic waxy stuff off the concrete! Sucks! :(

WE ARE REALLY LUCKY THE HOUSE DID NOT BURN DOWN! THANK GOD!

Here are some pics.





 
OMG!!!!!!!! This has been and F***ed week for us. That good the house didnt burn down. Was the before or after I called you from home depot?
 
Well I didn't have time to talk as I had company over so...


I just found out what happened. The candles that she used had a wooden stick in the bottom of them and apparently they attached the wick to the wooden stick. Once wick burned to stick, the rest is history.
 
I think the black puddle of goo on the porch is cool and you should keep it. :afro:

Make up a great story about how it got there not that lame story about patio furniture on fire.

Have a contest and whoever comes up with the best story gets to buy you new furniture.

Uhh wait you buy them furni.... uh that won't work never mind.
 
Damn, I am glad your house didn't burn down, that would have brought the suck. I think you should sue the candle company so that we can build a bigger shop!!
 
If ANY part of that house had vinyl siding or overhangs, it would be a pile of ashes today.

I had vinyl INSIDE the garage and that's what ignited and burned my brick house to the ground.

Tell your gal patio **** is cheap compared to being homeless. :spin:
