<< I'll bite. How did you do it?>>

Wasn't hard. Had a tough day and was burning some brush at the end. I was about 1/2 naked in the heat and wanted to burn another pile. Got a gallon of old gas I wanted to get rid of and dumped it on the new pile. Felt that little puff of wind and got to think, oh shit, prior to landing on my ass. Vapors got blown and the gas was a vapor by then. Talk about getting blown away, a gallon of gas equals 8 sticks of dynamite. Got cooked a little also. Ran to a hose and cooled off and spent the next two hours with ice packs. I was an army medic so I had an idea of what to do. Healed in only two months which my Doctor found remarkable.
