    Tried to blow out a candle, and failed on the first blow. So you move closer to the jar and blow harder, then feel the burning pain of hot wax all over your face? I have a...uhhh friend...who did...and my, friend, wants to know if I, wait he, is the only one to have done that, or if its been done before.

    Tell your friend "No John, the Old Man has never done that."

    I hope your eyes were closed,,,, errrr, your friend's eyes.

    Eyes were very open...I got lucky, one drop hit my eye lid above my eye, and another in the corner of my eye where eye crust builds up....I mean my friend, not I of course...

    I usually just hold my hand over the candle to smother the fire. You get used to the flesh burning smell after a while.

    I also have a friend who learned the hard way not to fry bacon without his shirt. He was squealing like a teenage girl.

    Almost, but instead of getting me the wax went all over a coffee table. I think my wife would have been happier if it had burned me.
