Okay, I've done that. Cooking. It was just a touchy unit, that's all. (That's what she...)

I set a picture of my ex and I on fire on a dock over the water and we watched as the thing burned completely around his face and then it went out and all that was left was his face - now that was just downright creepy.

The ones we have, they'll suddenly go off for no reason. Chow says dust or debris can trigger them. But they'll go off in the middle of the night while we're sleeping. Heart attack time. The cat loves it, too.

When I was 5 years old I was playing with matches in my bedroom. I was lighting them one at a time, letting them burn, then throwing them in the metal waste basket. Well, rocket scientist me totally disregards that there is paper in the basket and I soon have a good blaze going.

I calmly walk down the hall to the kitchen and get a glass of water from the tap. Mom is working there and says "What's up?" I reply "I'm thirsty".

Back down the hall, toss the water on the fire. No good - the flames are getting bigger...

Back up the hall to the kitchen, another glass of water. "Boy, you're really thirsty!" Yes, Mom, I am!"

Run down hall, toss, the curtains are now on fire.

Third trip, Mom's radar finally pings and she comes down the hall with me...

Mom screamed for Dad, Dad threw open the window and tossed everything out on the lawn.

Epilogue: I cried so hard I started getting hysterical, so they took me out for ice cream.

...been using that technique for personal and professional advancement ever since.

I just ate a bunch of fiberglass insulation. It wasn't cotton candy like that guy said.

My stomach's itcy...

My back is sore. Hubby and I did the first coat of paint on our front porch. After the porch is painted I can start the garden either side of it. Oh the joys of buying a home with no landscaping done.

Yes, but it will be hot in the summer and cold in the winter.
