    That was great! I really hope nobody was hurt.

    When I was a kid, back before all the regulations, my big sister and I bought 10 bucks worth of fire works at the pack-n-sac. They packed em all up in a brown paper bag. Later that night after the sun was long gone, we set off selected fireworks. And then her best friend, whoshallremainnameless, accidentally?? dropped her punk stick near the bag.

    Hahahahah.

    The whole bag went up! I ran and hid behind the Rambler, my big sister hid behind the maple tree as every. single. firework. ignited. in our driveway. LOL. I saw my mom peer out behind the dingy yellow gingham and flower curtains that hung in the kitchen. Her face motionless, almost paralyzed as she watched. Roman candles, spinners, bottle rockets, fire crackers,sparklers…you name it. All gone in less than several minutes.

    What a show! It was great. No….It was fricken awesome.

    It has been years but that was one of my favorite memories as a kid.

    The fireworks business isn’t for careless people.

    The worst explosion I remember was at a Morton-thiokol subsidiary during the shuttle flight stoppage after the Cgallenger disaster. The contractors were storing a few thousand metric shit-tons of rocket fuel because there weren’t any shuttle launches. A guy who used to work there claimed that on the day the fire broke out, when people saw smoke they ran to their cars and got the heck out as fast as they could. After all they were in the rocket fuel business.

    I looked on you tube, I’m pretty sure this is the video from the explosion.I don’t remember if there were any fatalities. If anyone had been within 1/4 mile of the place, the shockwave would have killed them.

    Probably why its not a good idea to have a company charcoal cookout at a fireworks factory.

    and a good reason for strict no smoking rules.

    The scene in Patriot came to mind. The part when the psycho old lady says, “lovely, fireworks” when the supply ship is blown up.

    I liked the way it started out slow and deliberate, and then crescendoed into a grand climax – kaboom! Great show, just like the ones I see on July 4th.

    IF THIS WAS REPORTED IN LATE 40′S STALINIST RUSSIA: The People’s Kollecktiv Fireworks Factory #252 was destroyed today by foreign spies and Jewish doctors. Swift retribution and justice (AND POGROMS) will be meted out to them in People’s Kourts, renowned throughout the world for their fairness.

    IF THIS WAS REPORTED IN LATE 70′S KORRUPT NOMENLATURA RUSSIA: The People’s Kollektiv Strategic Rocket Factory #252 was temporarily inconvenienced today by revanchist hooligans and bandits, drunk on cheap vodka. The Kommittee for State Security (KGB) will track down these parasites and ship them east in boxcars, where a new start on life awaits them.

    IF THIS WAS REPORTED IN 2015 USA IF OBAMA STEALS ANOTHER ELECTION: The workers union of People’s Fireworks Faktory #252 in Dillon, South Carolina (formerly Pedro’s South Of The Border), decided to blow up their livelihood and celebrate May 1st International Worker’s Day after being told that President-For-Life Obama issued Executive Order #129785436015485u2wo487693w90356875489390005r958.

    Our Great Leader’s newest Executive Order outlaws and makes a People’s Felony of celebrating the forbidden & despised “July 4th holiday”, the so-called “Independence Day” – fireworks are banned too.
