:bawl: I was just joking because I accidentally created a gaseous explosion on the grill about a month ago... :frown:

I thought you didn't have a grill. That is why you were boiling ribeyes.
Maybe it was a different type of gaseous explosion done in front of her truck? :lol:

I was steaming them... not boiling them... :mad: There's a difference :mad: not much but there is. :mad:

I don't share everything in my life on the forums but just so you can get your chuckle for the day... about a month or so ago, I had some friends over and decided to whip up some hotdogs, burgers lots of :cheers: and lots of :drunk: on my part and others ... I went to get the grill going and realized I didn't have any lighter fluid... I tried using sticks and leaves to get a fire going... paper, anything... even used bacon grease because I know that is flamable to know avail. So then I decide to take a looksie in the basement and what have we in there? My roommate's unused propane cans for ligthing a campstove. I figure ... now THAT will get things going... I take out the can, cut off the top so that I can physically squeeze it all out of the can... about 3/4th of the can later my fingers were starting to freeze, get real cold and about numb. I tossed in the lit match over these now ready coals and KABOOM there's was this big explosion and all I saw was white!!! everywhere for a second or two!! then I realized my hair was on fire on the right side, and the hair on my arm was burnt off (up to the point where it then travelled up my sweater) and into my hair.... I have learned that there is no substitution for lighter fluid and am afraid of the grill. :frown: Dumb grill.... :mad:

Maybe you shouldn't have dumped the mechanic. :whistle:

I don't know if dumped would have been the right word... there were too many other issues that overruled the fact he was a mechanic (more than one :frown:). He's known about my fuel pump/tank indicator since April... and nothing happened :shrug: I just thought it was one of those shoe maker's kids have no shoes scenario. :shrug:

Mistakes happen :shrug:

I knew I shouldn't have posted that little, tiny mistake :tantrum: :banghead:
Yes, they do, but bone-headed idiocy is in its own class. This was a Darwin award runner-up only by chance. :duh: :dork:

What WERE you thinking? Or are you even capable of thinking things through to the possible consequences? I'm just amazed you haven't seriously hurt or killed yourself and others. :shakesheadruefully:

Other folks were far away and in the kitchen... they heard an explosion and only saw white all around me/the area too... I don't know what I was thinking other than... after 30 minutes of trying everything else and being hungry and all of us :drunk: ... I found that and said to myself "now THIS oughta work!!!!AHAAA!!!" Kaboom!!! It scared me... my knees were shaking afteward... :frown:
As for thinking things through.... I thought it would get the coals started :shrug:

There is the possibility that Dems is attempting to become a martyr, and is merely moving from one phase to another.

Do they also promise 50 virginal men to the women who do themselves in by explosion? :ohwell:

I take the 50 men, but not if they are virgins :shrug: and better yet if they explode after passing through - beats the heck out of a messy breakup :yay:
