OK, so now teach him how to light it with his thumbnail! That is phase 2. Phase 2 becomes not such a good idea when some of the match ignites under the finger nail. However, it is a confirmation of the pyro's Rite of Passage. Phase 3 is illegal fireworks. At 43, I still recall the picture on the box of the half burnt stick matches that my dad found in the yard. I decided to light the whole box on fire, but was too stupid to destroy the evidence. What is even worse, I hid it behind the stack of firewood
. To this day, dad never believed me that it was not burning when I placed it there.
I was in a lot of trouble that day. I was probably 6 yrs. old. LOL. Thanks for the memories.
