I did a Fire Warden Training Course today, which involved sitting in a room listening to a decidedly uninspiring lecturer tell us about fire emergency evacuation procedures, and all these other things I can't recall that had acronyms like RACE, and SAFE...

And then he says... "71 degrees Celcius is the ignition point for human skin."

Jenny's eyes light up. "Really? What else can you tell me about setting people alight?"

Now, you guys all know I'm a writer, right? You understand why I go all excited and started asking things like that, and questioning him on how long it takes a body to burn, and did bones need higher temperatures, and all that...

Of course, it didn't help matters much when I pointed out the instructions in the little pamphlet he gave us describing all the equipment which contained the following instructions for a fire blanket:

Use blanket to wrap around a human torch. Ensure you replace after every use.

I mean... after every use... are they serious? Are there so mnay places that have multiple incidents of people being set alight? So many that you need to remind people to buy a new $10 fire blanket after every time it happens?

And they think I'm a little odd?

Anyway, by now, everyone else in the room is giving me very strange looks. The instructor was looking a little panicked... so he suggested we go outside and learn how to use the extinguishers...

Guess what? First one I touched... I broke:)

Chaos and devastation in my wake... my work here is done:)

Muwahahahaha

And they are paying you? shouldnt u be paying them?
LOL

I love it when you do the evil laugh!

I'd comment, but I'm too busy laughing *g*

LOL!
Sounds like you had an interesting time! *g*

Well!
I am sooo glad I wasn't tempted to op-in for Fire Warden a few weeks ago when my boss sent a general plea out to the trainers at our place. (RMIT Uni - tafe division) I reckon that pamphlet would be too tempting for any fantasy lover to resist a bit of fun with, and I am still trying to make a good impression at a relatively new workplace.

Read your Second Sons threesome a few years ago and enjoyed it.. but ran out of reading time for a while until recently when the long train trips into the city reopened my windows of reading opportunity!
Just started Hythrun Chrons and looking forward to full story. Marla Wolfblade speaks to all of us who have been in some of 'those' marriages. (and gotten out ahead of the game)
Well done.
