Fire in the Hole

...quite literally. There's a garbage chute in my school and today there was a big fire in it. Exciting stuff! Because of the proximity of my classroom to the inferno I was the first to notice the blaze. Gathering my courage, a coworker and I fought the conflagration thus saving dozens of lives and millions of dollars in infrastructure. Okay, so maybe I just pointed a fire extinguisher in a hole but it was still fun...how often do you get to pull the pin on one of those things? I think my bigger contribution to saving the building was checking the fire extinguishers afterwards and finding that, in true Chinese fashion, they had returned the empty fire extinguishers back to their storage place with pins replaced. Good grief, who are they trying to trick?
