This is the awesomest news story I've seen in years! A man decides to bulldoze his house because the foundation is cracked beyond repair. Without permission from the city or his wife he goes ahead because he will not be stopped!

According to the Middleton, New York, channel 4 news, James Rhein decided to bulldoze the home built in 1956 and headed to city hall Monday morning, only to find them closed for Martin Luther King Jr. Having already rented the bulldozer, he was undeterred.

Apparently he made no effort to EMPTY THE HOUSE! Wife Diane Andryshak says she came home to find an empty lot and insists they were not arguing. Rhein told news crews he tried calling but she didn't pick up the phone. When she returned to Middleton he was already booked at the police station for criminal mischief.

In addition to not obtaining a permit, he failed to turn the water and electricity off!

The family is now homeless and Andryshak is staying with a friend!
