Gettin' A Little Angry

Sounds like a pretty good time to me! Give me about 20 hrs and I'll me there, with a case or two!

...burgers... steak... grilled squirrel head... dangit, now I'm REALLY HUNGRY !!!!!

The only problem is it's 2:36 a.m. and nothing is open but the Mini Mart. I've been eating there all week long already... and my stomach is really growling now....

All this talk about lighting fires reminded me of a story they used to tell us AF firemen at the fire academy...

Seems back in the good old days (very non-specific but generally thought to be the late 60s early 70s), an aircraft fueler refuled a C-130 aircraft out on the flightline. He then proceeded to walk some 250 yards away from the aircraft to MAC depot, where he stopped to light a cigarette. Upon lighting the match, the JP4 fumes around his hands flashed over, and lit a trail down his body and all the way back to the C-130, which promptly blew up. It seems it was a hot summer day, and JP4 fumes are heavier than air... Opps :D

Never play with fire... (and the big bear with the funny hat says...) Only you can prevent... awww hell, I'm going to bed!!!

:D:D:D
 
I did set my neighbour's yard on fire once. He had lots of banana trees and I decided it would save a heck of a lot of work if we just lit a fire to clear the dead stems and weeds, aided by liberal helpings of kerosene. This was during the dry season. Leaves went up nicely at first, then everything seemed to catch fire, toasting the dead stems, leaves and everything else. The trees survived (lots of retained water in the trunks) but it was the first time i ever saw fried bananas (a local delicacy) still attached to the trees.

Plane blows up, banana trees burn, but somehow the stories are still funny. I'm sorry Docpat is no longer with us. He might be able to shed some light on this.

Your dinner invitation just went down the tubes. Al, put the macaroni back in the freezer. I won't light the back yard, yet (no bananna trees, but there should be a squirrel in one of the maples :p )
 
Guys, you have it all wrong. There is no need for lighter fluid, gasoline, chimneys, etc. All that one needs to successfully start a charcoal grill is... a 500,000 btu propane torch. I bought mine for drying cracks in concrete before repairing them with epoxy, but man, with a flame that shoots about 3 feet out of the end of the 2" diameter bell at the end of that thing, there ain't a briquette within miles of my house that isn't lookin' realllll nervous:D :D :D
Oh yeah, one side affect however, don't expect there to be any paint left on the grill when you're done, I've long since melted/bubbled mine off!!! This is, however, a small price to pay for a grill that is ready to go, no fluid taste, no gasoline 3rd degree burns, in all of about 5 minutes!:D

"a 500,000 btu propane torch."

Sort of like a 72"AK ainnit?:D :eek: :rolleyes: :D
I love it!!!!!!:D

This is Paul Bunyon's 72"AK and his 'little' charcoal fire starter.:p :rolleyes: :cool:
The original story was called "Babe's Saga.":D
hehehehehehe...........
 
Napalm is the key. It'll stick to the charcoal and burn, leaving nicely heated coals. Your food is guaranteed to smell like victory. :)
 
Guys,
This is "one" reason you all have a "RESEARCH" dept.
You all are "hopeless" without me & Koz!! You all can't even start a little bitty fire! Sad,very sad!STICK WITH A S-T-O-V-E! HEE!
JIM & KOZ THE DYNAMIC DUO!!:D(We will do seminars on starting grills,price will be 1K per,no ADVANCED classes at this time)!
 
"no ADVANCED classes at this time"Tsimi

The only thing you could teach an "ADVANCED" class in is age:p :p :D

Sorry, I couldn't let that one go by:o ;) :D
 
Actually, the only advanced age classes Tsimi is qualified to teach is "advanced middle age". He ain't even close to the rocks and shoals, yet :D
