Couch Kitties: "As God Is My Witness..."
"...I thought turkeys could THAW!"
Yes, it's that time of year when idiots learn, once again, that large flames can occur when you chunk a frozen turkey into a deep fryer.
Of course, for Sylvia Siamese and Norma Bates Kitteh, this is a FEATURE, not a BUG...

so many boring long worded instructions and process. Over Simpson would not approve. Step one Ponte Turkey. Step two run in the opposite direction of bonded Turkey before it enters pressure cooker simple expedient steps. Remember step three. Coax Turkey faster and if you've remembered. Step two you're perfectly fine. Why spend hours cooking a turkey when you can cook it in seconds.
I think I get it in honesty. The oil rapidly leaves the pot due to the expansion of the entered object and as it reaches the open flame under the pot you get fire and when it traces the oil back to the larger stores you get more fire. I should've suspected it was something to do with expansion, causing the fluid to flow over the sides of the pot . Personally, I still like to think that image. However, is some southern woodsman on a camping trip who face the wrong way to words the fire after having a decent meal and his corresponding flatulence have ignited. But that's just me. I find the idea of rednecks lighting Bodily gases funny.

I saw something similar to this on the Ig-Nobel Awards site one time. A professor of engineering, George Gobel (I kid you not - and not the comedian either!) at Purdue University (web site: http://ghg.ecn.purdue.edu/~ghg/), in an effort to provide a visual aid to his students on the energy that can be released in certain types of combustion of materials, poured liquid oxygen (LOX) into a Weber Kettle grill full of charcoal, with one lit briquette to avoid explosion. The resulting flame was, to say the least, spectacular! Check out the pictures on the link.
Guess you have to go thru the Ig-Nobel awards web site to get the archived George Gobel pictures.

from what I remember of a news broadcast. Some months ago a fellow had his kids birthday party and it started a forest fire or something like that individual Reported himself I forget how much damage was caused by something they did at the birthday party. I forget if it was the candles from the cake or fireworks. That started a fire. For the record, I only found out about the fire in California a couple days ago because somebody mentioned it to me. I sometimes go months without seeing a news broadcast haven't read a newspaper in years. Other than one or two newspaper covers and likewise I very seldom get around to listening to the radio, so most news on the radio. I don't get haven't had cable for years. Once in a while I get a piece of CNN here and there from down at my father's whenever I see the news on CNN at his place. It just seems to be one long screaming rant of some reporter complaining about Donald Trump. I'm not trying to start a political discussion. All I'm saying is I can are member when political media was supposed to be in partial fact is I don't like 48 Trump. I just don't understand why every time I see a news broadcast that my fathers on CNN. It's always about the same political items. It's like CNN never reports anything else but political news. Then again, what iron member of Canadian news back when I had cable would probably scare the crap out of most Americans. About 80% of our news broadcasts were complete garbage news ranging from things like animal judging contests and the occasional two-minute story that was usually completely out of date with stock footage for him a few years ago From a similar event.one news story in particular was about clotting, which confused me and everybody else where we knew people in that area. The only flooding they've gotten was a few inches and according to the news story there were people out and rescue boats rescuing people from their homes turned out to be news footage from a flawed. Three years earlier.
From what I understand there actuating quite a chunk of California. I think that's where the fire is supposed to be going on. I could be wrong. I thought they just had to worry about earth quakes out there and tidal waves.

There are several fires currently burning in Cali right now, including the largest and most deadly ever. (Currently 77 dead and counting, over a thousand potentially still missing, the town of Paradise essentially leveled.) At one point this fire was estimated to be consuming eighty acres or moving at the length of a football field per minute. People were burned in their houses, or, trying to escape the firestorm, were burned in their cars or trying to run from their cars caught in gridlock on roads in the forested communities.
This is the usual worst season for fire here. It's a combination of it being the end of the dry season, and typical fall seasonal high winds which can help to ignite and spread a fire. As well as that, we're a month late for our typical fall rains, compounded by a five year drought and increased heat and dryness brought on by climate change.
The source of ignition for the worst fire is probably PG&E electric lines either being knocked down by the high winds or unmaintained trees knocking lines down, as with the previous record-setting worst ever fire in Cali last year.
The cause of the fires can also be attributed to the way that the forests, brushlands and grasslands have been historically managed, or rather not managed. Before settled civilization here there were regular fires that would come through an area every few years and weren't too destructive because there wasn't such a large buildup of fuel. The indigenous people even set fires seasonally to groom areas for optimum natural food crop growth. Since we've settled here the regimen has been all about fire prevention, with very little attention given to maintenance and controlled burning (Which is expensive, time-consuming and somewhat potentially dangerous) to reduce the accumulated fuel load. A strict fire prevention regimen makes fires more rare, but much larger and more severe when they do happen due to the accumulated fuel load.
Add to that the effects of climate change, the recent drought, and the lack of rain in the last month and we have vast forests of dead and dying trees that have been affected by pine bark beetles, and huge amounts of accumulated dry undergrowth partially encouraged by large amounts of rain last year, and we have the conditions that have given us the explosive firestorms that we've seen in the last two years that lifetime firefighters agree have reached levels of ferocity in the speed at which they spread and the amount of fuel they can consume in a period of time never before seen here.

you know you're doing it right. When you're Thanksgiving festivities can be seen from the international space station. And that's just cooking the turkey. I wonder, would this also be considered a warning too . Cam John eel of what kind of retaliation, he could expect if he keeps threatening to launch missiles at US.
One of her world leaders sits down at dinner with him. Maybe this will be how the food going to be prepared.
