They had a policy (if I remember correctly) of prohibiting people

got on a tractor and cut a firebreak. Of course, the fire killed
all of the three legged tit mice and the government probably went
after the guy who cut a firebreak.


Any word on the three blind mice?


They were in a government nursing home and
remained safe.
