Did you say "Fire"?

Yesterday when I arrived at the gym, it was plastered with signs in Hebrew.  They were on the revolving entrance door, at the front desk, everywhere.  So, I decided it might be wise to see what they said (they were in Hebrew).  I asked at the front desk.  And the reply:

"Oh, we had an electrical outage.  There was a little fire this morning.  So you can't use the pool, the showers, or one of the aerobics studios."

Excuse, but did she say "little FIRE"?!?!  Not exactly confidence-inspiring.  But, I decided to take advantage of the fact that the gym was virtually empty after the "little fire" and ignored the acrid smell of burnt wires and pressed on with my workout!
