Another 4th of july gone! Stats: Fireworks Budget: 200$ Actual Fireworks Cost: 250$ Injuries: 1 Sustained a burn to the fingers whilst attempting to snuff out an errant fuse. (Those green fuses CAN NOT be stopped once lit. Go ahead. Try. I dare you.) War Winner: N/A - They weren't there this year! Fun scale: 7/10 Last Year's Fun Scale: 9/10 What could have been better: The folks of the kids next door could have been a lot less picky about "safety" (lighting a bandit and then waiting a full second before throwing it. Note that ALL BANDITS have 4.5 second fuses. Go ahed. Time it.) Also got ripped for holding a lit roman candle. (Damnit people thats how they're supposed to be used!!) Issues: Almost started a big grass fire at someones house because a smoke bomb went off inside some brush. The tops of smoke bombs flame off when teh fuse gets low enough.. the fire was stomped out before it could grow. Conclusions: The 4th of july is still as fun as ever. ~Tsukasa "Certified Pyromania, first class" Karuna
