A Fish Tank That Burns

Do you know how you know when you have way too much money? Yes, the first sign is when you hire hookers who look like Paris Hilton instead of just getting the real thing. But the real sign is when you have enough money to buy a fish tank that can actually catch on fire and burn down several apartments. That is what happened this morning to Tracy Morgan. Apparently the water in his fish tank didn't actually put out the fire that his fish tank caused and as a result Tracy Morgan's apartment was almost completely destroyed. He lives in Trump Place and several of his neighbors also had their apartments either destroyed or damaged by the fire.

Now, I know that many fish tanks have lights that attach and they are not necessarily expensive. But honestly, do you think that is the kind of fish tank Tracy had? I imagine he had something that probably needed its own generator system. I don't see him having some square little tank that had a light.

I also think that it is a crazy enough story to be almost believable. It happened at 830am so I doubt it was some all night party that went crazy. According to Access Hollywood, Sherri Shepherd told a really funny story about the fire on The View this morning because she lives downstairs from Tracy and had to have her son and nanny evacuate. Let's just say it involved instructions to the nanny to save her son and her wigs.

Oh, and for those of you who are concerned. Almost the entire apartment was destroyed except for the fish tank which was fine.
