The Fourth of Explosions
Happy fourth to everyone in the US, unless you’re the people blowing up fireworks outside my window while I’m trying to slog my way through writing PHP and JavaScript, two activities I find hard to do with random explosions going off in the background. I find myself idly wondering if we would have such a fascination with shooting off fireworks today were our national anthem not about exploding rockets.
Fireworks are supposedly illegal for personal purchase and posession in Kentucky anyway, so where does this stuff come from?
