Where did you see fireworks? Any good?
My neighbor set off some serious heavy duty stuff. I've never seen big stuff like that outside a legit public fireworks display. Sounded like mortar rounds launching.
My kids gave me a box of walmart type fireworks for my BD a couple weeks ago so we lit them tonight in the driveway. Fancy sparklers, a few pops, nothing over 10 feet high. But we had fun, and it brought back fond fireworks memories from childhood.
I used to skip school (7th grade, 12yo) ride the subway into Boston by myself, walk down a back alley in the north end with $100 in my pocket, give it to a teenager who disappeared around the corner with my bag, came back with it full of fireworks. Then I rode public transportation home with bag full of contraban and then sold it to kids in school, and terrorize my neighborhood all summer.
One idiot kid lit some bottle rockets i sold him from the back of the schoolbus on the way to school, throwing them out the window. One went up , came down, went inside the window of the car following behind, which was the gym teacher from our school, blew up on his front seat. That cost me a week detention. Ahhh youth!
