Bug Spray

An Israeli woman's fight with a stubborn cockroach put her
husband in the hospital with burns, a broken pelvis and
broken ribs, the Jerusalem Post newspaper reported yesterday.

The woman, frightened by the insect when she found it in
their living room, stepped on it, threw it in a,toilet and
sprayed a full can of insecticide on it when it refused to
die.

Her husband came home from work, went to the toilet and lit
a cigarette.

When,he threw the cigarette butt into the bowl, the
insecticide fumes ignited, "seriously burning his sensitive
parts," the Post wrote.

When paramedics were called to the home in Tel Aviv, they
laughed so hard when they learned what had happened that they
dropped the stretcher down the stairs, breaking the
unidentified man's pelvis and ribs.
