We don't need no water, let the motherfucker burn.

So today while contemplating my navel over a bowel bowl of mini-wheats I noticed the emergency fire extinguisher next to the stove. Upon further investigation I considered that the instructions for operating said fire prevention device were rather cryptic. They involve a forwards up, twist and then downwards motion on the trigger.

Now, I wonder if that having not versed myself with my kitchen's anti-incendiary device before hand would I have been able to decipher the vague crystallographic illustration? Probably not, I'd likely burn the house down perhaps going with it determined to die then not be able to grasp operating a fire extinguisher.

Ladies and gentleman, today's tip de jour is to understand your fire extinguisher before you face a fire. They're complex little devils.

Hey, you're upside down!

Yeah, umm.. I always eat my mini-wheats out of my bowel. Always..

And I'm not the one who's upside down! Everybody else is.

Great. Thanks, Brodie, now I'm going to have "Fire Water Burn" in my head for the rest of the day.

(I really don't want to like those guys, but I'm such a sucker for witty lyrics.)

Hey, did you know that song contains a sample of "Hungry Like the Wolf" by Duran Duran?

The roof! The roof! The roof is on fire!

Yep, me too. Oh well, at least the version I remember is the unexpurgated one: I understand they covered up the word "motherfucker" with a donkey bray for radio.
