#2 I'm thinking that in the process of putting accelerant all over her apartment, he got a lot on himself. Then he went back to his car and (literally) fumed for a while before lighting a cig.

Foosh.

People can be stupid that way. I remember seeing a US Army Captain who decided to see a bunch of soldiers cleaning large machines with gasoline in a parking lot. With liquid gasoline all over the asphalt, he decided that right then was the time to have a smoke. Standing in a shallow pool of gasoline.

A senior NCO said "Sir!" and snatched the cig out of his mouth. Puzzled, he pulled another cig out of the pack and put it in his mouth, preparing to light it.

"Sir!!", yelled the NCO.

"What'sa matter?", asked the Captain.

#3 The static electricity generated by some vehicles can be murder (one can hope, literally murder, in the case of this schmuck). Been closing the doors of our Accord with my elbows since we bought it in 2004.
