Whaddaya Mean You Didn't Want Your House Bulldozed?

Looks like this Pittsburgh man learned one of life's lessons the hard way: dreams are like rainbows -- only idiots chase them.

PITTSBURGH — One man's dream was crushed, literally. A bulldozer leveled his home by accident.

It happened in Pittsburgh. Andre Hall returned after a week of holiday vacation to find the house he bought for his family had been demolished. Hall had begun making repairs to the home and planned to move in with his girlfriend and her children.

"It's just a crushed dream," Hall said. "I always wanted a piece of Pittsburgh. I finally got it. Now it's gone."

[...]

"Why did they demolish the house?" Hall said to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. "They could see I had put in new windows and had slabs of drywall."

The city blames the contractor and said they will no longer be issuing contracts to that company. The contractor did not comment on this story.
