What Treebeard Said!
Home Depot, Lowes, etc. Check the paint section around the "thinner" shelves. The label will specifically say "De-Natured Alcohol".

...and have a funnel ready for the pour because most containers don't pour so well and drip to high heaven.

Wally World (Wal-Mart) in the paint section.
Heet gas line antifreeze in the yellow bottle works well also.

I couldn't find it anywhere- I ended up using 99% stuff from the drug store.

Stupid should hurt eh Chili?

You should've seen him start a bonfire with a gallon of gas. He had the nozzel of the gas can flaming! All the while, a cigarette hanging out of the corner of his mouth and a calm, collected look on his face.

The day BB tried to burn down Tc2
It was real a real bad scene. Flames twenty feet high. People kicking the inferno across the complex. Mass chaos!! Kids and adults alike screaming and running for their lifes.
I can still hear the screams and smell the odor of burnt white gas. It gives me shivers when I stop and relive that awful day, that day, BB set Tc2 a blaze.
