I guess this is a new science project someone will have to verify:

Well all readers, I am going to issue a warning to all of you-- Do Not mix
clorox and brake fluid. Why not, you ask?Let me relate what happened to me
this morning...
My kids got hold of an e-mail that had been sent to us, and it was some
silly thing about what kind of trouble boys will likely get into. It said
that clorox and brake fluid when mixed make smoke. Well, my daughters and
myself figured that since we were girls, we could do it and not get into
trouble, and you all know what a sucker I am for silliness.
We went into the garage with the clorox, got some brake fluid and poured
them into a bucket and waited to see what would happen. We didn't wait long.
I have never seen so much smoke without a fire in all of my life. And what a
stench! I opened the garage door to let the smoke and the smell out, and
that's when things really went down hill. Within 5 minutes, a police officer
was in the yard, wanting to know what happened. A concerned neighbor had
called to report a possible fire. The same concerned neighbor then called my
husband on his job (Blast her tattle-telling hide!) and told him the house
was burning down.
I had just convinced the policeman to call off the fire department and not
to call the paddy wagon, when my husband comes up and finds me and the kids
being told off by the policeman. I wish I had opted for the paddy wagon
after all.
Needless to say, we all three were in great trouble with him. I argued on
the girl's behalf, and he was determined to bust some butt over the whole
affair, so we agreed that since we all were to blame we all should be
punished. Me and my big mouth. The girls got sent to their room with no tv
privileges for the day. Since it was not feasible that I be confined to one
room, he settled on plan B.
He savaged my posterior with a flip- flop shoe, and I'm not sitting pretty,
and I probably won't for a day or two!
Now,I've been honest, and although it may be funny to you-- heed the moral
of this tale, which is to disregard what you read in e-mails, Do Not mix
clorox and brake fluid, and NEVER EVER let your husband within a mile of
your rump when he is mad at you!

Nothing happens.
