Ah, Shugah,

That winter was a real bitch for us folks out here in western Colorado. I remember it well. You know what the real shit kicker was? A previous tenant had installed a nice little wood burner in the living room, and I wasn't allowed to use it. In all the years that stove had been there and folks had been burning juniper in it and staying toasty warm, Slumlord never bothered to have the chimney checked for creosote build-up or have it cleaned. The entire 4-plex probably would have burned down faster than you could say "hell fire" if I tried to light so much as a wooden match in that stove's fuel box.
