okay----i'm just wondering if they have an annual "Fireworks Display" in Herman, Zurra, for the whole community, like they usta have here? but yeah---the whole clan loads up their car and crowds inta town out by the airport, sitting in a line of traffic ta get in. then, they all sit-n-watch colorful explosions in the sky, like it's hammas attackking Zurra. then, they all cram inta their cars, and sit in line, waiting to leave. but see---the city decided to discontinue the annual event due to the expense. but yeah---they decided the money could be better spent on other stupid stuff. (believe me---they have stupider stuff to waste $$$ on.) Ha. Yup. I may relocate ta Mass, home of Karen Read & Al DeSalvo. The good news is---fireworks are totally Eee-legal, there. Yup. (see photo)
They may be totally illegal, but you would never know it on the Fourth! It sounded like a war zone here last night too. The NH border towns have lots of fireworks stores, so they're easy enough to get.Originally Posted by littlebittybobby
Last night was the first time in a long time or maybe ever? That we sat on our deck and had a perfect view of fireworks in Hermann. I don’t know where we’ve been the past five years, but I think we’ve been in the city during fireworks time and then last year there were no fireworks due to drought and the year before well everything was under construction, so I wasn’t here.
Our deck is really really nice for viwing lots of things.
As for “war zone” you need to come to St. Louis 2 weeks before July 4th and about a week bedore Mew
years. Our neighbors shoot off guns. Lots of gunfire. And yes, bullets do rain down and do damage.
We live downtown and used to be able to sit on our porch to see the fireworks in downtown Indy but the trees have grown huge in 24 years so now we need to move about 4 houses away. We were asleep this year.
I’m not a huge fireworks fan but last night I was sitting in our sunroom reading and kept hearing explosions and then I looked up and saw all the fireworks. I could see them as easily from our sunroom here as I could out on our deck, but I just went outside because it’s more of an outdoor activity.
But Fireworks just Every few years is fine with me.
okay---this is all very interesting. it brings to mind the VERY catastrophic "The Station" nightclub fire out east in Rhode Island 21 years ago. so anyway----a very lame traveling rock band that had been a one-hit-wonder(that was very stooopid)in the 80's was performing at this nightclub that had that white urethane foam board around the stage as a backdrop, and the groups manager set off fireworks(indoors)while the group was performing their "music"(ha), consequenly igniting the foam board, causing a fire in the crowded nightclub, killing 100 people and injuring another 200 or so. anyway--the site has been a vacant lot since then, but i see they(i don't know who "they" are) built a more permanent monument as a memorial. but yeah---a memorial to stupidity. and guess what? one o' my subjects(for study) is an iwah(nowhereville) drive-n-eat-buy-tickicks ta see some lame-ass old rock band that never was any good, and last year they wenta see that same crappy group that caused the fire 20 years ago. drove-n-ate a 250 mile round trip during the prime hours for impaired drivers, too. how do you like that? if you need to consult me about whether you should do stupid stuff, don't hesitate toi consult littlebittymee. i will do my best to talk you down from the ledge, though the world might be better off without any stoopid people. hope that helps you some. thankk mee.
okay-----guess what? i have some terrible news for you---the front man for the rock band(noise) that was playing at the station, when it had the tragic fire, has suddenly passed into eternity. but yeah---it is all over the news, so you kids are prolly already aware of it. thankk mee anyway. yup.
I read about that this morning. I'm not particularly knowledgeable about this band, but the guy was 63, and that seems so young (now that I am older!)
