The Mountains of Pakistan

In the mountains of Pakistan, I walked up towards a campfire. A huge explosion ripped from the flames. I cringed and curled sideways into a standing fetal position. Following the explosion, a little metal canister fell in front of me with a "dink. dink. dink." sound as it approached me. The cause for this havoc? Terrorists? No. No. A canister of spray deodorant had been thrown with the trash into the fire.
