    This is a new record for good laughs in one thread. I completely lost it at "...a fireman in Albany."

    Wife can't stand bananas. Daddy loves bananas foster. A couple times a year, I'll do it OUTSIDE on the grill's side-burner. Mamma decides to make me a special birthday dessert, lights up 151 with pan still on oven burner. You know those things they call "filters" in the vent-hood? They should call them "grease traps" instead. Extinguisher was above the vent, which was shooting flames out the top. Cleaning up fire extinguisher shmang till 3am is even less fun with a burned arm.

    It seems your wife is as taken to understatement as mine is!

    Ah, yes. This summer I put a POS gauge on the propane tank, and then left town. Phone rings and it's the Boy with the question that you don't want to hear from the road - "Mom wants to know where the fire extinguisher is." We found out how quickly the local fire dept responds. No fire but there was general thermal anger near the propane bottle. Fire dept told her if it happened again just roll it into the pool, because that's what they would have done. No sense to bring the hose around back
