What is a foreskin?

In male human anatomy, Prepuce, more commonly referred to as the foreskin is a retractable double-layered folded tube of skin and mucous membrane that covers the glans (head) of the penis and protects it when the penis is not erect. It is also endowed with a large number of touch sensitive nerves that make it important in delivering pleasure during sexual intercourse or masturbation. The mucous membrane that lines the inside helps in stimulating and lubricating the glans penis and also makes the experience easier and more pleasant for the female pardner.
The foreskin ( also refered to as the prepuce) is the part of the skin of the penis that covers the head of the penis.

In teenagers and adults, the foreskin can slide back to expose the penis head. This frequently occurs during an erection. In infants and children the foreskin does not retract until sometime in childhood, usually by age 12.

Can you carry a zippo lighter on a domestic flight in India?

According to the TSA website (TSA.gov) lighters are permitted under special circumstances. You can bring a lighter on in your CARRY-ON baggage. Lighters that are unfilled/unfueled are allowed in your CHECKED baggage, but filled/fueled are not allowed unless in a special case (this is because prefilled lighters, such as a bic, can explode in the unpressurized underbelly of the plane, while the cabin is pressurized, which would prevent rupture).

No. Lighter fluid is usually butane, a flammable substance known as a hydrocarbon with chemical formula C4H10. A spark ignites the butane, allowing the lighter to function.

Your average tiki torch uses a 1/2" round wick. Wicks come in cotton or fiberglass. Both work well with tiki torches, but the cotton wicks are consumed during burning, and need to be replaced.

The one thing you'll need to buy before using it is lighter fluid. Zippo lighters come empty and you'll need to fill it.

As time wears on, you'll need to purchase flints and wicks but these take a while to wear down.

Diesel fuel for lighter fluid?

Why? I mean, I guess you could if you really needed to, but you can buy a case of fluid from pretty much any drug store, convenience store, or grocery store. I would recommend using the fluid that is made for it rather than anything else. If you can't find it at the store, ask someone who works there if they have it.

However you do have to be 18 at many places to buy it, so I hope that's not a problem...

What does the letter k on the bottom of your 1935 vargas girl zippo stand for?

The K indicates the month of issue. K means your Zippo was made in November. 'A' for Jan, B for Feb etc.

But a 1935 lighter should not have the letters indicating the month. Zippo didn't start using the letter system until 1986. Sorry but the lighter can't be a genuine 1935 if it has a letter and number on the bottom.
