Simple Truths

From Kids on Science: When people run around and around in circles we say they are crazy. When planets do it we say they are orbiting.

How to Avoid Chemical Fires

First, remove the bag of aging, badly leaking chemicals (Raid, defrost stuff, draino-ish substance, cleaning alcohol and some sort of goo all over everything) away from it's spot in the garage near the lawnmower gasoline and piles of cardboard and place them in the garbage to be disposed of.

Second, relax. You have successfully broken the Fire Tetrahedron by removing one of the four elements necessary for fire, those being Heat, Fuel, Oxygen, Chemical Chain Reaction.

Third, go clean up... several times... cause your paranoid about what that goo might have been.

In the meantime,

I am Celeborn, King of Lothlorien. During the War of the Ring, I succeeded in leading my forces in the conquest of Dol Guldur. People say I'm just Galadriel's pretty-trophy husband, but REALLY I'm the strong-and-silent type. In the movie, I'm played by Marton Csokas.
