It's That Time Again


Tomorrow starts the time of the year to sell fireworks in Texas. And yes I am one of those rednecks in the fireworks stands. For the past few years I have taken time off work to ply my entrepreneurial skills.

The actual reason for me selling fireworks is the same reason as a crack fiend becoming a crack dealer. I am a fireworks nut and have to support my habit somehow.

Have a great weekend everyone and hey be safe out there.

As I will be out at the stand without net service, My blogging will be sparse the next two weeks but I will pop in from time to time.

I went to that big brother site, that was freakin' awesome loved it thanks! chicken george though? I would have sworn it would be Ivette after last year. I can't wait til it starts

shay: Some states sell fireworks year round but sadly we are not one of them.

breezy: I'll be there with bells on. Do I need to wear anything else?

angel, jr: Safety First.

bruce: It might have been the pic.

laurie: That reminds me of the Native American in Joe Dirt. I love the description by Joe of all the cool fireworks besides plain ole' snakes and sparklers.

green eyes: ;)

andie: Who'd a thunk it, huh?

catch: I love the big displays.

siren: You betcha.

phats: Chicken George was such a cool guy at the start of that season but when he died his hair blue I think that he melted too many brain cells. It will be interesting how this site chooses the worst as their picks get evicted.

Should we be nervous? You...exploding fireworks?

I was finally traumatized by the singing Applebee boys. Strap a few fireworks onto them, okay? That was painful. Now I'm going to see them all the time, aren't I? Sigh.

I used to be a nutjob with rockets.
Once set a cemetery on fire.
Oooh, not good.
Had a pack of firecrackers go off in my room as a kid. Dad wasn't very happy. It looked like a Nor'easter had just blown through.
Fireworks+Beer+Night Sky = Good Times.

jenna: No need to be nervous. It's all good fun. Sorry that you were exposed to the Applebee's duo. Dang they are bad.

michael: I have never set anything on fire but I have seen someone set there car on fire by shooting Roman candles from the front seat of their car. That was phunny. Not to them but to all that they had been shooting at.
