 "HOW I RECEIVED MY BURN," by The One and Only KURNUL!

Here's the story on how I received my first burn. I was at my dad's new house (still being built) and I wanted to show him the spudgun we made (or how it worked). The reason why he never knew was because we had a few problems with it at first i.e. not wide enough spark gap, too wide barrel, etc. So, we shot it. He was quite amazed about the power of it. He had fun just shooting it on our 5-acre property.
The next day, we shot it again, but he wanted to take some pictures of our house, so he left. Well, my sister and I were still shooting it, and the ignitor stopped working. It was a pop-in ignitor meaning that the hairspray probably was coated with hair spray by then. This has happened many times, so I just unscrewed the lid and blew out (most) of the fuel to check if it was still sparking. I took the usual precautions, pointing it away for the first couple clicks.
So then I went to see if it was sparking. Well, as I said above, I got out MOST of the hairspray. Then, after that this is what could be heard, "click, click click, KAPOW!, OH CRAP!" Well, by that time my dad had gotten done with taking pictures and noticed me examining my face in the side mirror of our car. He then said, "got some hairspray in your eye?" Then I quickly replied, "somethin' like that." It ended up burning my a half inch in diameter of flesh of, singeing my eyebrows and eyelashes and my dad didn't even notice on the hour drive to my mom's house, and believe that was a LONG hour. It ended up, he never found out at all.
THE MORAL: ALWAYS get ALL of the fuel out before checking the spark.
