Serial Arsonist

Step into the light with fire
About 6 months ago you may remember my run in with the frying pan, so when I say fire you're probably thinking to yourself : "meep needs to look up the word conflagration(but oh meep meep I have motha meepas!!)"
I've learnt my lesson and now have been blister free for 5 months. However it seems that someone in my street is just beginning to play with matches, over the past 2 weeks roughly 7 fires have been lit on peoples front lawns(I called the fire brigade for 1 and I saw them coming in for another the night after). I'm not talking about large scale but at the same time there is hardly any grass left in the street.
After talking to my landlord this morning I found that it started off small and slowly the serial arsonist is figuring out that petrol is an excellent agent for burning lawns. You see I live in a uni street where all the other residents don't see why we should pay twice as much rent for on campus accommodation that is tiny compare to a self contained unit. This time of year is graduation time and all the graduates are moving out and leaving all their old furniture on the street for a new generation of tenants. Obviously this firebug believes that it must make the place look ugly and have set about burning the piles to the ground (regardless that it's the middle of bushfire season fueled by scorching temperatures and high winds and young saplings growing since spring.)
I have a feeling that it's going to end badly as I said he's getting better at lighting the fires and each time he's burning a bigger pile. Soon he'll be torching the scrap part cars on peoples lawns.
I swallowed three quarters and a dime yesterday and still haven't pooped them out.
