Accident?
Or a quick cash out, for the new inflated home values, paid temporary housing, a relocation move, all without a Realtor commission fee?

#5 I wonder how owners/builders of these multimillion $ mansions see fit to erect such costly monstrosities and yet somehow omit to spend a little extra $ to install automatic fire suppression systems.

#6 It would take a mil grade fire suppresion system to put one of these out.
The key to doing this is make sure your turkey is completely defrosted. No ice at all.Also, turn off the burner before you lower the turkey in. You can always relight it. The life you save may be your own.

#7 I’ve fried a ton of turkeys being from the south. Never had an issue, just too much peanut oil on my first try 30 years ago. It didn’t boil over but damn near did
