"How will it end?" "IN FIRE."

   I was attempting (based on prior success) to grill our pizzas, since the oven is still unreliable.

   The grill caught fire.

    This wasn't no pansy-ass "oh a little grease on the bottom is burning". This was "THE INTERIOR IS A SEA OF FLAME, BARELY RESTRAINED BY THE DOUBLE-WALLED STEEL COOKIE-SHEETS ABOVE!!!"

   This was "I CAN BARELY GET NEAR IT TO TURN IT OFF!"

   This was "The paint BELOW THE GRILL is ON FIRE!"

   I got the pizza itself out before it was destroyed, but the inferno continued to grow WITH THE GAS OFF.

   It finally burned out just before I was going to go for the fire extinguisher in my car.

   It MELTED part of the knobs on the FRONT of the grill. The igniter is gone. I think the tubes below MELTED.

   All these things are lost, like tears in flame. Time to fry.

   Actually,  time to get a new grill.
