Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 19, 2021

Every player in the Molotov Cocktails Soccer Team was awarded a cigarette lighter because they lost all their matches.

Come on baby light my fire.

The charcoal grill and the salmon filets were in need of starting a fire.

My chance to get even with that old bastard….BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE! YAY!

My father once threatened a guy he would throw a match into his gas tank. The guy responded “I dare you!” to which my father took a match and dropped into the spout. The step he missed was lighting it.

A multi-purpose tool.

“Waitress! This coffee tastes like turpentine!”

“Oh, I’m sorry, Sir, I must have given you tea. Our coffee tastes like kerosene!”

So the neighbor across the street was going to burn some brush in his driveway. It was a fairly warm day. With the brush all piled up, he threw a cup of gasoline, of maybe several, onto the pile. By the time he applied a match, there was a fairly large vapor plume, which resulted in a fuel-air explosion powerful enough to rattle windows fifty yards away.

hey that’s my grandmother!

Gawd, Teresa! You know better than to give this group any further ideas!

Lisbet Salander?

She looks totally ready to get this hootenanny off the ground! I can’t say I blame her. Totally not willing to wait for Carrie.

…in the good book there is a story about Elijah or Elisha…

…I forget which…

…the prophet told the people to pour a foul-smelling liquid over the wood for the holocaust…

…drench it…

…in fact…

…if I remember it right(and I am always not getting it right-curse the non-reliable narrator )…

…the drenched wood burst out into a giant flume of flame…

…foosh!…

…gasoline…

…I always thought…

…gasoline…

♫*_" I don’t want to set the world on fire, I just want to start a flame in your heart"_*♪♬ ( and give you heartburn, you son of a ….. )

You fought hard and you saved and learned

but all of it’s going to burn.

Fire, I’ll take you to bed…

Now that is an idea I can get behind.

Post ignition, eyelashes and eyebrows are the first to go …!

Pyromania. So satisfying, so pretty. So, so, pretty.

Oh no, Frog Applause is fomenting a populist uprising!

Oooo, is she gonna use that gasoline and the match on the ones that are gonna delete Sherpa next week?

May I borrow a cup of gasoline? I have plenty of sugar, just no gas.

slept like a log last night, woke up in the fireplace

I don’t wanna set the world on fire, ‘cause I’d need more than one cuppa for that; I just wanna start a flame in Your heart! You’ll relish the heartburn, I expect. Traditional ways are the most satisfying (I was a junior pyromaniac; old habits die hard)l
