Be careful with the firecrackers today (1 Viewer)

They took most of the hearing out of my left ear.

I'm not anti-fireworks, but just be careful. Asploding stuff is fun.

Of course I would never sue the "Black Cat" fireworks company for their fast fuse.

Lawsuit abuse is the worst problem this company faces. It makes everything more expensive.


Sorry Jim Everett.

I once alomst got my head taken off by a saturn missle.

Last year, firing a artillary shell, it didn't go in the air, and it 'sploded on the ground.


But yes, I love them.

We used to have full-fledged bottle rocket and Roman Candle Wars with PVC pipes, metal tubes, and protective gear.

I'm still wondering how I survived without burns and a loss of some extremities.

Yeah, Roman candle fights should have blinded us all back in the day. Luckily, we were usually too drunk to actually hit anyone.

croc's are not good firwork shoes. My son is half crippled today because of foot burns.

That's what you get for letting your kid wear those stupid shoes. They're probably the LSU colored ones, too. I could see letting your plump wife wear them, but don't raise your son like that.

Not LSu colors, he has black ones. Croc's are pretty much his first fashion fad thing. the first of many I'm sure.

same here minus the 'protective gear'.. I took a bottle rocket right between the eyes one time.. Split my nose.. Inch to the right inch to the left and I would be having trouble picking up a glass off the table.. Thank goodness the wind was blowing how it was these day..

10 years later, I now wear goggles when I have a bottle rocket and PVC war. haha.

Those large smoke bombs do more than smoke at times. I had one of those stupid things "backfire" out of the bottom and burn the crap outta my hand and shirt a few 4ths ago.

I was given some more as a joke at the next New Years... I lit it on the ground and the thing flew into the air like a bottle rocket. I'm not as trusting of those.
