Default Re: Stuff Happens - Dist. Takes A Punch

My Wife had a friend (Cindy) who's Husband's (Mike) truck had a fuel leak, not having a flashlight he pulls out his bic (these were new items back then) and strikes it up, the fire confirmed the fuel leak and he quickly put it out, but he can't seem to squarely located the exact spot of the leaks origin, so he pulls out his trusted bic lighter once more, well, he finds the exact spot of the leak, determines, by the size of this new fire, that it is a good sized leak, due to the fact that he can't put this fire out.
By the time the fire dept. gets there his truck is burnt to the ground, and his wife is none to happy, since the cabover camper that was on the back had most all of their clothing, and food, for themselves and their two kids, in preparation for the week long camping trip that was to start the next morning
Been about thirty some odd years and this one still cracks me up.
