Be an example to your men, in your duty and in private life. Never spare yourself, and let the troops see that you don't in your endurance of fatigue and privation.
I (helped) almost burn down my house with a jack o' lantern.
A few years ago for Halloween I decided that the simple candle was too weak so I decided to pump up the flame. The night before I put some old cooking oil and just about a shot of gasoline to help it start burning then I set it out in the open for the fumes to dissipate and I threw in a rag for a wick. Then the s**t hit the fan.
I went out for a walk and gave my sister specific instructions not to light it until I returned. She knew about the contents. The thing is that she got impatient and decided to light it without me anyway. Later she said it was all my fault for taking too long on my walk.
Anyway my plan was to light this in the middle of the street. If things got bad then it was surrounded by about 6 feet of non flammable road. My sister, however, simply put the damn thing on a metal chair on the porch. The fire started spreading so she decided to take the hose and try to put the fire out.
For those of you who don't know much about fire prevention this does not work. Flaming oil will not be extinguished by water. It will float on top of the water and spread.
Anyway I finally get home to see the flames. I try to tell my sister to turn the hose off, but she wouldn't listen. Finally after about 5 minutes someone ran inside and got my grandpa. He finally told them what I already knew and they turned the hose off. Then he went and got a bucket of flour and put the fire out.
I knew all the precautions to take, I knew how to deal with the fire if the s**t hit the fan, but because my dumbass sister wouldn't listen to me we almost lost the house.
Always be tactful and well-mannered and teach your subordinates to do the same. Avoid excessive sharpness or harshness of voice, which usually indicates the man who has shortcomings of his own to hide.

Also...that sounds like something my younger brother would do...ask DERANGED HANK...he'll tell you that, my little brother...is a dumbass.

But not just any rocks, retarded rocks whose mothers drank when they were pregnant with them.
