I used ether on a set of semi tires many years ago.
Couldnt get one to light, so I'd add more ether then try it again.
When it finally lit, the tire and rim lifted 2-3 feet off the floor, the dust in the rafters came down and one of the office ladies poked her head into the shop to see if we were ok.
I used it a couple of years ago on a tractor tire but it wasnt nearly as entertaining.
Oh hell yeah. Columbia house was the first version of a subscription. They would send you shit every month and charge you. They made it impossible to cancel.
