"he who thinks he knows how to grill"

Since summer is offically here Jay and I thought it was time to break down and purchase a grill. And so we did. After examing all our options we decided to get a little charcoal one to save a few dollars since we did just replace the air conditioner. And we brought the little guy home assembled him and Jay he's so excitied by this time that he immediately puts charcoal in the thing hoses it down with lighter fluid and ignites it. Well it's ablaze for a little while and then it goes out the coals are NOT really hot. So he tries again, immediately there's a beautiful ring of fire and then 10 minutes later it's out, he does this several times before he realizes apparently we didn't get self-igniting coal we got the other stuff and you must let the fluid sit on the coals before lighting it. So 3 hours after we set out to fix lunch we have 4 lovely grilled hot dogs - I must admit they were yummy and well worth the wait but I can't help but to laugh at "he who thinks he knows how to grill" - but I must commend his persistence because with any other task he probably would have given up.
