Hopefully the forest fire will die out soon enough not to cause too much pollution.

I just find it amazing that a cigarette butt will start something like this so easily when you don't want one whereas a blowtorch can't start a barbeque fire when you want one.

:lmao :rofl2
It has been fairly dry out there for the past while, so it's not too hard to trigger a huge fire.

You're just doing it wrong... You gotta use plenty of lighter fluid...

Wow! Alot of smoke there!

I know we have a bunch of wildfires burning in the West here in the USA...

my friend Bill just loves the lighter fluid when it comes to fires, though it was only when he tried to light his cigarette off the flames that we had to pull him back.. hehe

hehe... I lit my cigarette once at a kitchen stove, the fire was a lil big and burnt some of my hair. For the whole nite, i smell something funny, but then I didn't notice until the next morning.

Speaking of lighter fluid, I remember one time myself and some friends of mine were camping out w/a bonfire...we had had a water balloon fight earlier in the day, and still had some left over, so I filled one w/lighter fluid and threw it on the fire.....I'll tell you...that was one of the finest flameups I've ever seen.

****Now, as an announcement**** I don't recommend any of you try something so foolish, fire is dangerous mmmkay...but if you do decide to take on such a foolish action, neither I nor 3GM or any employee or representatives thereof are responsible for said actions, do at your own risk (preferably not at all). :Holy Crap

Speaking of fire. My friends and I almost got arrested once since we didn't know the park closes at dark. The gate says it closes at 9pm, but it was only 8pm when it was dark. We were having a bbq, and we were just starting to close up. My friend and I were carrying the cooler back to the car, all I hear is, "Freeze!!!! Drop the thing on the ground and put your hands up." I turn my head, I see a cop pointing his glock like 5 ft away from me.

That was a lil freaky.
