I learned about the birds and bees, but no wounds.

I can't wait until I get to 'honk-honk' some day.

Does a killer headache and churning stomach count? I do believe the grass pollen is trying to do what years of working around smokers has failed to do: kill me off.

 Nothing to speak of here, some minor burns on Jr's hand from fuses but not a big deal to an up-and-coming pyro-tech.

No damage, put some rounds downrange in the new M4 build.

Other then that, who gives a flaming f#&k about texas?  Is it really that important to "beat" a bunch of two-bit posers?  Just because they like to sit around in a circle jerk and then split up the baby batter toast equally among themselves is not reason to engage in any sort of competition with them....

Fireworks were great!  Only wounds were from a brief airsoft skirmish – bloody elbow and cheek.  Barrels of fun though!

Fireworks don't kill people, but it sure makes a mess of them.

Fireworks don't injure people, it's the rapid deflagration of charcoal and/or aluminum, sulfur and potassium nitrate that does.

Fireworks don't injure people, just the ever astonishing stupidty of people.

Took a bottle rocket square in the chest.  Luckily it bounced off before it exploded.

Anyone else enjoy bottle rocket wars on the 4th?

My guess is Sno Pac or Marysville.

I'm thinking about applying at either if there are any openings.  My attempt at CT failed.
