A lesson here either in common sense or the dangers of mumbling your prayers over a hot dish.


—" A New Jersey appellate court says a man cannot seek damages for burns he suffered while bowing his head in prayer over a sizzling steak fajita skillet at a restaurant.

The ruling made public Wednesday upheld a lower court ruling that dismissed his lawsuit. The man claimed a waitress didn't warn him the dish was hot, but the lower court found the food posed an "open and obvious" danger."

First he bows his head giving thanks, a hot pop of grease smacks him in the face (How close was he to the dish anyway), and then he jumps up spilling the hot dish in his lap causing (he says) more burns. Obviously, the devil was in that skillet .
