I almost got burned alive today

[bob]

so...I almost got burned alive today

here's what happened

I was helpung my dad prepare dinner like normal when he asked me to light the grill

I turned the gas on from the propane tank and let it start to go for 10 seconds to give it enough time to get into the grill

I stuck the lighter into the hole where the flame is supposed to go....and it didn't light up

I was confused by this...so I turned the propane tank off then turned it back on

when I went to light the grill again....


BOOM!
what appeared to be a gigantic fire ball emerged from the hole to light the grill

apparently my dad neglected to tell me that I need to have the top of the grill open when lighting it

as a result I had a bunch of grill ashes on my hair and eye browns

[Mr. Emoticon Man]

Yikes. That sucks.

So... what was for dinner?

[bob]

grilled chicken, boiled potatoes, corn, and water

[Mr. Emoticon Man]

Meh. Chicken isn't worth getting burned alive for.

Now... a nice, juicy venison steak on the other hand...
