First off before I say anything on this topic, I would like to sincerely apologize to Don, and anyone else I offended. Who most likely wont be to glad to see I came back. Anyhow...
As I know I dont have to tell anyone, just a few days ago was July 4th. While it stands for freedom and libberty, which after 9/11 we could all use. It also showed extreme stupidity and violence with the fireworks. Let me explain, in both Ohio and Michigan, fireworks that leave the ground are very illegal. Unless I believe you have a warrant or something of this nature. Or at least do what farmers do and fire it into wide empty fields. Well were I live, these fields are no where to be found. And neither states have gotten alot of rain. In a mobile home community like the one I live in, not only is it illegal but it is stupid. On July forth we had some running around to do, so we left at about eleven. Well, my mother sees something in our yard. It is a firework, used. With gunpowder still in it. We had been very lucky because it appeared to have rolled off our roof.
So we call the Erie Police, and tell them about it. He says he will tell the officer who will be on later that night to keep an hear open for fireworks in our park.
Sure enough we have to call them, and they show up, I was in the house so I dont know what they said exactly, but as my mother leads one of the officers to the house, the other taking the used firework into evidence I believe, guess what the idiots did. They did their grand ending right infront of the cops. They got back in the car and drove over, hoping to get there before the smoke clears. They did.
The sad thing is, I hear the same type of fireworks right now.
Now it is time I got to act like myself on these forums. I left to make sure that wrongs my "friends" did was corrected. So now I can act the way I normally do. And not look like an *** on these forums. Though I must admit, I did quite well.
