I've received pinch flats by running over potholes, logs, rocks, etc when my tires were underinflated.

Lately, I've been hot-patching my patches. I heat up a cast-iron skillet and iron the patch onto the tube. It's an old technique I saw illustrated in Glenn's Manual of Bicycle Repair, written in the early 70's.
I thought I was hip by using my patch kit, you ROCK
