Day 20 (May 14, 2007): Jolly Little Pig
I've been reading the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. Can you tell?

There once was a jolly little pig named Sangria. You might be thinking that Sangria is a strange name for a pig and, of course, you’d be right. Sangria’s owners were very fond of alcohol so it’s somewhat humorous and quite ironic that Sangria’s sudden and unexpected superpowers involved flammability. More specifically, they involved fire. More specifically yet, they involved shooting jets of flame out his nose.
Sangria’s owners, Beth and Dave, discovered their pet pig’s power one late evening as they were sipping margaritas and watching the sunset from lawnchairs placed, appropriately enough, on their lawn. As the sun dipped past the horizon, both Beth and Dave noticed that the air was much warmer than it should be after the sun had retired for the evening. Since the alcohol had already coated their brain in a thick layer of ignorance and inobservance, it took them a few more minutes to turn around and notice their home was on fire. The sight of the home was shocking enough that they didn’t yet notice their pet pig standing next to the flaming wreckage, steady blue flames shooting out its nose and a stupid grin on its face.
