Kids now a days don't know what fun is... I learned at a young age (single digits)that a garden hose will put out a gasoline fire, but it sure as heck ain't easy. Gasoline floats on water. Nothing like hearing Dad yelling "Why the h### is the garden hose melted???" Don't ever tell me at a young age that gasoline explodes... Cuz I want to see it.

Come on Winky... Look at my Avatar!!!!

Reminds me of a good friend telling me... We were in our 20s.... Of all the things we did and the trouble we could have gotten into, we never got hurt. (at least not too bad) His younger brother was a really good kid and never got into trouble, and he passes away from cancer in his mid teens.
