Man blows up apartment spraying for bugs?

Mon Jul 21, 2008 1:42pm EDT

NEW YORK, July 21 - A New Jersey man trying to exterminate insects in his apartment blew it up instead, the New York Daily News reported on Monday.

Isias Vidal Maceda was unhurt in the incident, but 80 percent of his apartment was destroyed, Eatontown, New Jersey police told the newspaper.

The accident occurred as Maceda was spraying for pests in his kitchen. Somehow the bug spray ignited a blast that blew out the apartment's front windows and triggered a fire that quickly spread, the newspaper said.

Police told the newspaper that the Saturday blaze also caused smoke damage to the apartment above.

anyway, i'm back from my trip to taiwan and all moved into school... and i wish i were back in taiwan >< why, you ask? hrmm... i'm not really sure myself, but i think it has to do with being able to walk out at 2am and get a full course dimsum meal or maybe with being able to play mahjong with friends across the street or maybe how things are just better tasting and cheaper there... none of which are actually very legitimate reasons to want to stay there forever, but i dunno... every time i go back it feels harder and harder to leave haha
on another note... living in a single studio this year so far seems a lot more spaciously comfortable than having 3 people cram into a single studio like last year =P but i have to admit, it's getting a bit lonely >< hopefully once school starts i'll be too busy to be lonely...
