    Looks like the rocket is about to explode! Where were you when the boogers hit the rockets red glare?

    There’s a nose-blowing joke there somewhere…but I’ll leave it alone.

    You do realize that the whole point of the stick in the back is to replace the tail fin?

    This shouldn’t be rocket science, Peter.

    Rockets are a dispersal weapon. Launch enough of them and they will scatter to cover a large target area. The theory being that the errant course of one rocket will be counteracted by the errant course of another rocket. Which is why they gave them to us forward air controllers to fire one at a time to pinpoint targets for the fighters.

    Don’t you just hate when that happens?? Here in California, you can buy them in this county but not the next county north – but no one stops them from coming down here and taking them back over the county line. Makes one wonder what the point is then.

    Unless you’re a licensed pyrotechnician, fireworks are illegal in Maryland. Ditto Pennsylvania — where, oddly enough, there’s a legal trade in selling fireworks as long as they aren’t going to be used in PA. So there are fireworks shops all along the PA/MD line selling strictly to out-of-staters; and they check your license to make sure you’re not a local. Problem is, the MD State Fire Marshal knows where these joints are, as do his deputies; so they keep their eyes on them and wait for the cars with the MD tags to come back across the state line. Quite disingenuous on the part of the fireworks companies; but there are enough customers who figure the FM can’t have all the joints staked out all the time.

    Well, they’re sort of illegal here in Minnesota. I say “sort of” because some types are considered “safe” by the St Paul politicians in control of the “great Minnesota society”.However, there is always Wisconsin where seldom is heard a discouraging word, and the skies are not cloudy all day!Oh, sorry… I guess there are a few who do utter a discouraging word in Wisconsin!

    It could have been worse. It could have been a rubber hose!
