Fireworks! What's Your Opinion?

I can remember being a kid and my uncle calling me up asking "so, are you all set and ready for the 4th next week?" I said "yeah to watch. mom and dad won't let me have any fireworks." A few days later this huge box came addressed to me from my uncle in Michigan. needless to say my parents where not happy. Our streets fireworks show sure was a whole lot better that year though!!!
