This is disgraceful, why didn't you have fireman on standby on site?

Zack will have to be informed  :old:

I believe Zack is enroute now, as Grand Pie Master, to the Tragedy to console local inhabitants and offer his support and condolences to the stricken community.
First reports indicate a PLO  ( Pie Liberation Organisation) operation went horribly wrong....dont quote me in Check6... authorities are following a gravey trail to a yet undisclosed location.... we might have Piegate on our hands, ...mmm......pass the napkin

Members of the United Sauce Soiling Renegades have claimed responsibility... Pie squad officials have denied comment.

Really nice to see a bunch of degenerates making fun of a poor situation that resulted in injuries to first responders and will result in the loss of jobs for many.

Yep, really funny.    :frown:

Do us all a favour. Go look up catharcism in the dictionary.

No one is mocking the injured. or those who have lost jobs. Everyone I
knows Zacks prediliction for pies so have obviously drawn the conclusion it would be a joke to mock Zack. Nobody else. You're just sore because you couldn't come up with any gravy jokes. :banana:

And how the hell did you kno I was a degenerate? :old:

Danny and Jimmy,
I am not laughing because I know people that no longer have work because of the fire.  So, it's not so funny to me.

The best friend i will ever have lost his foot on a russian toe popper in Afghanistan. We bought him a box of slippers with only one slipper in and a copy of running magazine.

Humour does not detract from the pain and sorrow, it goes a long way to relieving it.

Compassion is always there but humour allows the breaking down of barriers that loss and injury cause andcatharcism is part of the healing process.

For those that have lost, they have my sympathy, but I guarantee humour will be part of the healing process  :salute

Don't shoot the messenger!

No ill thoughts towards you. 

Thankfully all the first responders are expected to fully recover.  Hubig's is an "institution" down here and many fail to realize that this fire will put a significant amount of people out of work.  It's just not funny when you look at a business that size and realize how many lives are impacted now that it is gone.

In my eyes, I understand it's in our nature to poke fun, but in yet another instance, it is prudent to think about those affected before opening one's trap.

It was a business that helped feed the first responders after the catastrophe of Katrina.  I read the article and the part about the fire fighters trying to put the fire out with there tears.  The story said they will rebuild, and I hope they can use the current employees to help accomplish that.  We have a pie factory here in Tulsa that makes most of the biscuits and pies for McD's.  They also make the best, small pecan pies in the world.

I apologise Bodhi if I caused you or folks in New Orleans offence, I see your point.
It might have been a wee bit flippant, no offence was meant.
Danny seems to put our British ways quite well.
If you saw the Olympic opening ceremony you can tell we like to laugh at ourselves
I wish them all well in re-establishing their pie factory and bring back what appears to be an institution.
Long live Pies!

With a little luck, the company had business interuption insurance as part of their property insurance policy. Ive delt with business' that have been utterly destroyed, and the policy provides not only loss of income payments to the affected company, but also covers the payroll to the employees while the company is not producing their chosen product.

Always sad to loose an institution like that, you can never replace the history, but maybe they will come back stronger, and more profitable due to redesigns and upgrades to mfg.........I see this all the time (its my profession)...my fingers crossed for all the folks down there.

Glad the first responders are all safe  :aok
