Rock arrived home to find that the enormous old oak in his backyard had fallen and possibly damaged his and his neighbor Tom's houses. The bulk of the tree lay through the middle of Tom's backyard, but two large limbs leaned against their roofs. At first glance, the damage seemed limited to a few displaced shingles, so Rock wasn't terribly worried. It would take some manpower to move all the limbs and the trunk, but there were plenty of men around.
As he walked toward the side door of his house, he heard voices in his kitchen. He stepped in to find seven or eight workers amidst ruin. They had torn out cabinets and moved his refrigerator and oven to the middle of the room. Rock suddenly wondered if he had walked into someone else's house.
