There will be no "Starting the New Year with a bang" jokes.

This happened a block from my house.

Anyone who knows the geography of the area also knows that there's a gas station on the corner of the same block. So, yes, it could have been worse.

There really isn't anything, so far as what I've read and seen can tell me. All I know about it was that it started at Stella's (the pizzaria) and spread to the rest of the building.

Stella's was closed, and I'm pretty sure Amigo was as well, but not too sure about Shanghai.
