NEIL'S Universal Laws

You cannot successfully determine beforehand which side of the bread to butter. The chance of the bread falling with the buttered side down is directly proportional to the cost of the carpet.

Safetips

To safely light your grill: open the hood; open the cylinder service valve; hold the igniter at a burner port of lighting hole; and turn the valve to the position recommended by the grill manufacturer.
