Guest Guest Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 SIXTEEN STEPS TO BUILD A CAMPFIRE Building a campfire is easy; just follow these sixteen steps (in order): 1. Split dead limb into fragments and shave one fragment into slivers. 2. Bandage left thumb. 3. Chop other fragments into smaller fragments. 4. Bandage left foot. 5. Make pile of slivers (include those embedded in hand). 6. Light match. 7. Light match. 8. Repeat "a Scout is cheerful" and light match. 9. Apply match to slivers, add wood fragments, and blow gently into base of fire. 10. Apply burn ointment to nose. 11. When fire is burning, collect more wood. 12. Upon discovering that fire has gone out while out searching for more wood, soak gathered wood from can labeled "kerosene." 13. Treat face and arms for second-degree burns. 14. Relabel can to read "gasoline." 15. When fire is burning well, add all remaining firewood. 16. When thunder storm has passed, repeat steps. (author unknown) Quote Link to comment
