By request....the dvdguy fire story

[mrshfromjersey]

When we lived in NJ, we had a little restaurant we liked to go to called Shakey Jakes. The food was so good. The atmosphere great and the prices AWESOME!!!! While waiting for our dinner to be served, my wonderful husband, who is never boring, started to take little pieces of paper napkin and hold it over the candle and drop it on the flame. As the paper would get near the candle, it would burst into flames. He took a bigger piece of paper and started lowering it down and this time, while he was still had it in his fingers, it burst into flames and burned his fingers. He yelled "Ow" and the flaming piece of paper went flying. Quite entertaining.
That's the story. Mike tells it better though.

kids

just to explain this, I was dropping pieces of napkin into a candle but they wouldnt light. I got this one closer trying to drop it, & it lit while I was holding it. Apparently paper can ignite without touching flame

[Ervserver]

probably due to excessive sulfur in the wood pulp during processing.

very sciency

Science has an explanation for everything, except Anna Nicole Smith

I did have a guy ask if he could supply visial aids. That's just what I needed.

[dvdelf]

Here's a start

Show an early picture of her before she got so messed up. Say "This is Anna Nicole Smith.

Then show one of the horrible pictures of her stoned and disgusting and say "This is Anna Nicole Smith on drugs, money, old men, lacking morals. Any questions?"

ANS is the subject at a devotional study????? sigh.

It's not about her, but she is being mentioned. You can hold off on the pills.

Are you sure he's not from Mississippi? Likes the whole family thing.

Okay! Let me see if I got this straight. dvdguy and joisey girl go into this
restaurant where blues legend Shakey Jake Harris ( http://www.djangomusic.com/artist_bio.asp?pid=P++++84573&morebio=1 ) and Anna Nichole Smith like to hang out, do drugs, and take before and after photos.

While the prices are low and the food is good, the place doesn't pop for a heating system so it's cold at the table. Being the resourceful guy that he is, dvdguy tests the sulfur content of various articles of fuel sources before sparking a warming fire with a properly folded napkin held at a precise angel perpendicular to floor.

The Mother-In-Law comes in late and in an effort to warm her, dvdguy proceeds to rub her belly while longing for the warm Mississippi life he knew as a child, all possibly to get back at Miss Joisey Girl for dragging him into a place with no heat to start with. (And remember boys and girls, a preposition is a terrible thing to end a sentence with, not to mention dangling participles.)

Joisey Girl learns that you can't burn a candle at both ends, but one can achieve an ultra flame from only one end with the proper sulfur content of a specially folded cocktail napkin and that by law one is still kin to the other (i.e. still brother & sister, etc.) after a divorce in Mississippi.

Shake Jake Harris and Anna Nichole Smith move to Mississippi to escape the insufferable New Jersey Winters that freeze crack pipes to the point that fiery cocktail napkins are unable to keep them lit.

Oh boy. You should write novels.
