Mules can be heroes, too!

Jolene Solomon of Tennessee is beginning the new year with her life, her mule named Lou and little else. Solomon had just finished eating supper on New Year's Day when Lou's braying and acting up got her attention. Solomon, 63, who lived alone, stepped outside, she saw her house was on fire. She called 911 and as she waited for firefighters, her home and everything in it burned to the ground. Solomon said she has 'lost it all', but credits Lou with saving her life. (Source: Yahoo News)
