It's a story you can tell for years. Worst burn was coffee. I
   understood the 3rd degree burn Coffee lady in the .. 80s? 90s? I
   forget. Anyway, playing with a percolator. Forgot water can get
   super-heated.

   Anyway, put it in an old cobalt blue coffee mug. Loved that mug.

   Blew up. Cold mug. Superheated coffee.

   Peeled off skin on stomach. The kind of pain you forget. (I do
   anyway)

   Straight to ice. Two days of ice. Whatever anti-inflammatory
   painkiller was available.

   After some period of time and lots of peeled off skin (thicker
   than I would've expected), it's perfect again.

   Love ice. Miss my coffee mug. Threw out the percolator. Went
   back to drip.
