Happy Fourth of July
7/04/2006What ever happened to all of the good fireworks? Bottle rockets, sparklers, Black Cats... they've all been replaced with booring sparkle fountains and Piccolo Pete noisemakers. Then we wonder why some people resort to shooting guns into the air.
A fireworks stand in Costa Mesa, filled with some of the least exciting fireworks since the Han dynasty.

Yeah, I remember growing up out in San-Berdoo back in the '70's & 80's they used to have some cool fireworks. Now you have to come out here to the mid-west where we currenlty live to get the good stuff. You can even get your hands on M-80's in some places. These rednecks out here spend more money on fireworks than groceries, and you can buy them all year 'round.
