Could be. I know I’m the odd man out here. Most of the people I knew got into it.

Rick,

But to blow things up to blow them up? I never really got it.

Maybe it’s just a primordial desire deep within our cosmic nature to re-live the Big Bang.

Happy 4th

Can you buy fireworks in Pennsylvania? To the best of my knowledge, yes. Can you use them in Pennsylvania? No.

I was never much of a fireworks guy. Bottle rockets, firecrackers, and sparklers were about my speed. Wait. Don’t forget the snakes. But to blow things up to blow them up? I never really got it. Like most Americans, though, it’s not the 4th of July without a pretty light show in the sky.

Happy Independence Day, Steve.

Amen! The 4th of July exists to celebrate civil disobedience — something many Americans would do well to remember.

It’s also a great time to go back and read the Declaration of Independence. It’s a truly radical set of ideas.
