One Minute Tip: How To Start a Fire with Allie



This really works. Last Friday we were doing a photoshoot with Sara Kate out in the Hamptons for O Magazine when we had the opportunity to capture this great little clip of Allie, who floored us with his close reading of Domino Magazine. To all One Minute Tips.

I just have to say - that jumping beans clip that shows up on the side made me laugh out loud. Maxwell, you are a nut.

Actually, I wanted to use lighter fluid, but Allie stopped me to do his thing and we didn't need it.

Wow, it's funny watching urban yuppies try and do things like light fires. The little rings are totally unnecessary: just scrunch some paper up and spray it with cooking oil if you don't have enough kindling.

I think the urban yuppies comment was a little harsh... why waste the cooking oil, when you can just use the paper?
