suppermarket, people let me go first

4) useful in the pilot light goes out
3) no more fummbling for the flashlight, you can "illuminate" your own way 
around the house

with your "fire magic"

"Some say the world
will end in fire,
Some say in ice,
From what I tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire
but if it had to perish twice
I think I know enough of hate
to say that for destruction
ice is also great
and would suffice."
