You light up my life
We all choose our own poisons. Americans have been brainwashed with anti-smoking commercials and public service announcements since the 1960’s. Here is a story that demonstrates it is not only what you are smoking that can light up your life. Most of us have seen pocket lighters for smokers. They are usually disposable small containers of brightly colored plastic that are filled with butane gas under high enough pressure to keep it as a liquid. In the US we generally consider these things disposable and when they don’t fire up, we throw them away. Some people are not into the disposable thing and buy brands of these butane lighters that can be refilled. Walmart will sell you a can of highly pressurized butane with a squirt nozzle that allows people to refill their pocket lighter with the butane fuel gas for continuing use.
The shocking video below emerged from Spain that shows a massive explosion in one of the washing machines at a laundromat, which shuttered the entire building. The explosion took place moments after a lucky man walked out of the premises. The video was caught by CCTV installed inside the building. You will see a man coming out of the laundromat with multiple bags of laundry while the machine runs in the background. Seconds later, the door of the dryer opens, some clothes fall out and an explosion follows turning multiple machines into fireballs. The incident took place at 7.30 pm, no one else was in the store, but the explosion was heard by many people living in the area. They immediately dialed the Spanish emergency number 112 calling for the fire brigade. Investigators claimed that one of the washing machine users left a clipper – lighter recharger inside their clothes and the tossing of the dryer caused the explosion. The lucky customer leaving was not injured. You can see the explosion took out the door and front window. The fire officials tore down the front wall of the building saying it was a security risk and suggested rebuilding the entire structure.
Smoking hot humor
On his first day of Army basic training, my husband stood with the other recruits as the sergeant asked, “How many of you are smokers?” Several men raised their hands.
“Congratulations,” he said. “You just quit.”
The great thing about inflation, is if you spend the same on groceries,
the bags are lighter and easier to carry home.
I tried to look up lighters on Amazon.
All they had was 13,749 matches.
I don’t know why people say it’s so hard to quit smoking…
I’ve done it like six times.
