BUT, in speaking of fireworks this company, a sort of SoCal local company, is a family-run, fifth generation outfit that does a ton of the big shows around the country (at the very least), including the olympics in Atlanta and the ones in SLC. On edit: they do some international shows too, including the Jerusalem 3000 celebration.
I remember seeing a pbs thing about them, where they talked about how they planned shows and prepared for them. The special also mentioned that some fireworks have to be hand packed because machinery + explosives = bad.
It's a word now!
Whee! I love Independence Day! Also, thanks for sharing the fireworks.
Kat, who is responsible for the absolutely adorable shirt that Burrell's son wears in that picture?
Allyson painted that. Makes me giggle.
Also, I'm trying to figure out where I can get a pocket constitution. I just don't want to order 20 of them (for $20). I used to be able to get them for free... but how?
Also, random, today is the 150th birthday of the first publication of
Leaves of Grass.
Timelies all!
My cat is sleeping cutely in a box. Actually, it's a box that's been propped at an angle in another box. Anyways, it's cute.
Also, we're gonna need a =lot= more boxes for packing.

Did you see upthread that yesterday I saw your American döppleganger? And that she's married to a pirate?
Also, we're gonna need a =lot= more boxes for packing.
Well, especially if the cat keeps commandeering them two at a time for sleepspace.
Sheryl, I bet you can get free boxes on craigslist, now that people have moved in for 7/1.

The bug is still alive and still stuck where it was last night. I'm going to go grocery shopping soon and I'll get some bug killer.
JZ! I hope it was clear that what I sent was a joint birthday present for both of you?
