Man on Fire
Build a Man a Fire
And he’s warm for a night.
Set a Man on Fire
And he’s warm for the rest of his life.

Unfortunately, I’m afraid most would sputter and simply smolder into ash–but I guess then too they would be warm for a given period. Smiles…>KB

How do you know this? How many men have you lit fire to? Either way, this is great.

It’s a theory I’ve stumbled upon but have yet to put into practice.
However, I did assist in setting fire to a friend’s Christmas decorations, but that was merely an accident.

Yes, my dear. Just like fuzzy cheese. Mmm, mmm good. Now I think I’ll make a cocktail and try to wash that thought out of my head. I recommend you do too. Fuzzy cheese has the staying power of which even toothpaste can’t remove.

Behaviour. Promise to behave. Would that behaviour model be on the Sister Madly scale of behaviour? Would it perhaps be on my scale of behaviour? Is the behaviour on the scale of other individuals that are not the incendiary types you and I are?
Enquiring minds want to know Ms Madly!
Unless of course the flames are in response to Disco Inferno. Then all I can say is … burn baby burn!

Promise to behave = promise not to accidentally set his house on fire. Or anything else, for that matter.

I am not having a good day here and now I’m befuddled and discombobulated! I got the head tilt with the half agape mouth. I am laughing (which I very much needed) and people are looking at me funny and not in the ha ha way.
How? Tell me how! How can you promise not to have an accident. An accident by its nature is without intent. How can you possibly know whether you’re going to have one or not?
Are we to presume if the house is set on fire, or anything else for that matter, it is with intent?
Milady Madly, without question you are a beaut! A beaut of the absolute best kind!

Smoldering? What, you think people just burst into flames whenever I’m around? You are quite within your rights to put out any fire as you see fit.
Think of it this way: there are certain schools of thought that say ‘There are no accidents.’ Thus one can promise not to accidentally set something on fire.

Perhaps advice was the wrong word. Lets just go with your theory is sound!
I apologize for any misunderstanding I caused!
Mine was no accident. Had to be done. The embers remaining will smoulder for a very long time.
This one sent an invitation. Would of been impolite not to accept.

Entrapment indeed! But they do say it’s the grow old part that is mandatory, not the growing up.
