the Zippo lighter.
my junk drawer. i was cleaning it out. found an old, silver, boring, Zippo. racked my brain on why i have a zippo..i didnt smoke. never did, really.
and it looks it. it is perfect. no dents, original wick. i had to buy a new broom, and i saw the yellow and blue bottle of lighter fluid. $2.99. i got it, filled the zippo, and click! i got the flame. i got too much flame because i overfilled it. whoops!
i remember the smell, the sound. as far as lighter goes, it is kinda useless no? heavy for backpacking. could leak in the pack. unknown number of uses. there are much cooler lighters. heck, a cheap disposable makes a better camp lighter. a zippo isnt even windproof.
what is the deal with the original zippo? pure romance? any zippo carrying fans?
any zippo tricks you could teach me? hahahha
