Secrets ay? Err...mine are quite disturbing. Here is a more moderate one:
If any of you have seen the movie "Blank Check," you might remember seeing a part in which someone sets a check on fire. It burns slowly, unlike normal paper. Well, when I was 8 or so, I saw the movie, and I thought it was the coolest thing, how that check caught fire. So, I decided to have a little firey experiment of my own.
Now my father had candles going in our old house constantly, especially in the office where he'd do meditation. So, I took an envelope, and held it to the flame of a still-burning candle in the office. Needless to say, it caught fire instantly, and the flames advanced towards my hand much more rapidly than they did in "Blank Check." I threw the envelope down and started screaming. My parents rushed in, and my dad threw a dictionary on the flaming envelope. Very lucky that we had tile floor in there, and that I didn't set my dads documents or my entire freakin' house on fire.
They wouldn't let me go to Discovery Zone that day...
