Reminds me of the Hispanic family in MA who wanted to BBQ a whole pig during a monster snow storm [3-footer] ...
Put the charcoal in the bathtub and lit it ...
Old ceramic/steel tub, heated the floor boards underneath and caught on fire ...
Burned down the entire 100-unit complex cuz the fire dept. couldn’t get there cuz they couldn’t get thru the 3 feet of snow on the streets ...

Silly Woman. She should just hook up a trailer and tow some fire around like this guy.

Yesterday I could start the minivan, but couldn’t shift it out of Park.
Oddly enough, charcoal fires, lighting fluid, boiling water, and blow torches, all of which were available, did not occur to me. It took 45 minutes of running the engine before it would shift.
Now blow dryers and heating pads are entering my mind as possiblities, but I am not sure where I would put them, or that it would be a good idea with the engine running.

I once watched a guy on a ladder attempt to remove, with an acetylene torch, the icicles hanging down from his gutters. Set the whole roof on fire.

At first glance, I thought it said “warn instead of warm”. Good thing I looked again. : )

Great. Now we’re going to have ‘warning labels’ on bags of charcoal for the stupid...
Frankly, I’m surprised lighters don’t have warning labels that say “Caution: May start fire when operated”

[Lac du Flambeau police Chief Robert] Brandenburg says he's used the charcoal trick successfully, but he doesn't advise that others try it. Great statement by the Chief.

I guess the state of Florida doesn't have an exclusive franchise on folks doing dumb stuff... Hopefully it wasn't a Freeper. There was thread the other day suggesting taking the battery inside and also doing the charcoal thing to start diesel powered cars in extremely cold weather.
