Jimmy Dean escapes house fire, sausage cooked to perfection

Jimmy Dean and his wife, Donna, escaped a late night fire to their Varina home last night. Everyone was okay but the home was significantly damaged.

Yes, when I read that Jimmy Dean had a house fire the first thing that came to my mind was breakfast sausage. I'm warped that way. If your late coming to this game called NashvilleGab you'll soon come to realize I'm just a dork so don't mind me.

Anyway, back to the fire. It was reported at 8:05 p.m. and was still not under control at 11:30 p.m. The home was large enough and secluded enough that it took eight engine companies, three tanker trucks, and two ladders to fight the blaze. They also had to shuttle water about a mile to get it to the residence.

Firefighters discovered fire from the “basement to the attic” when they arrived, Henrico fire Lt. Chris Buehren. The fire spread quickly because the “balloon-frame” house has no interior fire stops, he said.

“Tell him he’s fired.”

Weirdes cameo (for me), since I’d only known him as “that sausage guy”.

James Bond movie “Diamonds are forever”. Jimmy Dean played a recluse Hotel Magnate, initials were W.W. I think... was alluding to Howard Hughes
