I haven’t had much training in emergency medical situations, but I did have something back in high school health class. And various bits and pieces of knowledge that I picked up over the years, especially being a parent.
The one piece of advice I remember about burns is this:
Do not put butter on burns!
All my knowledge about what to do with burns consists of that – do not put butter on them. I have no idea what I am supposed to put on burns – I know only what NOT to put on them.
In order to help those of you who have the same problem as I do, I have decided to put together burn kits that you can keep in your house or car or wherever you think you might need them. That way, you won’t have to think about what you are supposed to put on burns – it will be right there for you.
Here is my first prototype:
Like I said, put something that’s not butter on burns, right?
But if the bright spot remains in its place and has not spread in the skin, but is dim, it is the swelling from the burn; and the priest shall pronounce him clean, for it is only the scar of the burn.
Leviticus 13:28

This post was inspired by a radio commercial. I forget which company it was or what they were trying to sell. It said something along the lines of “hitting a hornet’s nest like a piñata”.
Now available on T-shirts! Go buy some Worst Piñata Ever merchandise on Printfection.
Moreover, the Lord your God will send the hornet against them, until those who are left and hide themselves from you perish.

Just don’t call him that to his face.
Like a flower he comes forth and withers. He also flees like a shadow and does not remain.

Girl (out loud): I love you.
Boy (to himself): She loves yew? But that’s not even a yew – it’s a spruce.
Boy (to himself): Maybe she just wants to talk about things we like. I know! I’ll tell her my favorite band.

Surely you have spoken in my hearing,
And I have heard the sound of your words

Officer: I’m pulling you over for reckless driving.
Driver: It’s true I haven’t had any accidents…but I didn’t expect a commendation.
Officer: Commendation? No! It’s a ticket.
Driver: A fine? For not having any wrecks?
Officer: No, for reckless driving.
Driver: Right, wreckless driving.
Driver: Just what is “reck” anyway?
Officer: ?!?
Driver: I mean, I know what a wreck is and why I don’t want one.
