short farming story

Reading a local newspaper,
As usual, front page, all people failures,
At the end or middle (sports!) come the success.
18 years old boy was farming something illegal at grandma's basement.
In one bad farming day, the power and light didn't cooperate.
Entire house burned to the grownd.
Insurance company didn't say "wow", refusing to pay.
The father is mad on the front page.
Where is the boy, on page 2, grandma is wiping his tears:
All he wants to be a farmer or now a firefighter.
