The Grill

I made a special trip to the store today to buy more charcoal and lighter fluid.

Yes, I know lighter fluid is both wasteful and environmentally unsound, and I should use a charcoal lighting chimney arrangement made out of large coffee cans and a grating, but I don’t like crappy coffee enough to chase down the cans, and furthermore it wouldn’t be considered wasteful if 9 out of 10 people alive today weren’t. Also, it’s fun to play with flammable fluids. Really fun. Whoosh.

So, as I was saying, I bought more charcoal…the hardware store is the closest business of any kind, and they have the Kingston charcoal with BBQ flavoring. Curious to see how that turns out, but it certainly smells good.

And I wonder: I sure do go to a lot of trouble to make my food carcinogenic. Why does it taste better when it’s partly burned?
