Police: Man Burns Down Home Over No Gifts
A man angry that he got no presents for Christmas burned down his parents' house early the next morning, police said.
Y'know, I'll betcha I can guess why nobody bought him a present...
Steven Murray, 21, was charged with arson and risking a catastrophe in the blaze that broke out early Sunday. No one was injured. Police said Murray had himself committed to a hospital on Christmas Day, but then signed himself out and walked eight miles home. Later he told police he saw the flames in the distance. But officers said his jacket smelled of smoke and they found a lighter in his pocket and a gas can near the front door. "He was irritated that his family gave him no presents for Christmas," Lower Southampton police officer Peter Liese said.

#4  And Santa's going to have a quandary; coal is flammable, as is reindeer manure.

#5  I think we can all safely assume that this is one kid who's been cut out of the will.
