Stupid News: Man Tries To Kill Spider, Sets House On Fire Instead

Don't you sometimes wish life had an 'undo' key, like programs on your computer do?  I'm guessing this guy probably does. He's looking at possible arson charges, as well as over $60,000 in damages to his house-- all because he was trying to get rid of a spider he found in his now-charred house.

Now, I'll admit I'm a sap and usually try to trap a spider and move it outside if my wife or I come upon one in our house. This guy, however, doesn't share my enthusiasm for saving spiders. In fact, when he saw one in his laundry room, he decided to take care of it by making his own homemade blowtorch-- with a can of spray paint and his lighter.

You can guess what happened next.  (And you can read the whole story HERE.)  Yeah. He set the house on fire. Caused about $60,000 in damages-- and doesn't have a place to stay right now.  But he did take care of that spider.  Bet he wishes he could hit that 'undo' key and take the offending spider outside!
