No, but they do in Surinam. You ever been there Willis?


Nope, but I didn't see any in Iraq. You ever been there, Carlton?


Don't know Carlton, or if'n he's ever been to I-raq, but I sure as hell have.

Which Jetboil do I want if I'm cooking Mountain Houses for me, and me only? My friends have to tend to themselves. The Flash looks pretty sweet.

The SOL.

The SOL Ti will save you 2oz's and cost you $30.00 more.

Though I hear the new ones are better, throw a bic lighter in the cup in case the ignitor craps out. Easy, cheap, light insurance. Plus, being in college you should be carrying one anyway. Chicks that smoke will put most anything in their pieholes...

I told you before you need to bend the thingy to get the proper arc.

The Midwest is making you dumb.

The wire part of the igniter can be "tuned" for optimum sparkage.

The original jetboil igniter was huge and could get bent/bumped, requiring adjustment. Have had no issues with my flash.

I haven't had to use it since you told me. I leave the gear fondling to TAK. But, I'll get it out tomorrow to prove you right! That said, I'd still carry a bic. It's kinda like double wrapping my junk...

Yes, the Midwest is making me dumb...and fatter and lazier.

Well next time your dumb midwestern ass breaks out your gear, bend the thingy so the arc goes directly to the hole (haha! hole...) the gas comes out of.

It will light up like TAK's eyes after a fella buys him a drink.
