Is anyone awake, yet?
I have coffee and cookies!
Sorry I have no donuts, but I do have some Pepsi for those that aren't coffee drinkers!
Ree, I hope everything went okay in the lab while making your own eliquids. Wouldn't want this to happen!
Yes, I got into the smilies websites last night and uploaded a bunch to my Photobucket, if you couldn't already tell!
Happy Independence Day, friends! I hope the day finds you thinking of all the ways that you are grateful to live in this fabulous (even with all it's flaws) and crazy country that we call home. (and if you want to squeeze in a BBQ, a beer or two, light a firecracker, etc...by all means do it, have fun and be safe!)
Define good fireworks vs. bad fireworks please, cuz I'm a fireworks Debbie downer, they're all bad to me! 
Good fireworks are airbornDefine good fireworks vs. bad fireworks please, cuz I'm a fireworks Debbie downer, they're all bad to me!
Bad fireworks are the ones in people's hands or the "fireworks" that can accompany family gatherings
Good fireworks are airborn
Not all airborn fireworks are good! I was once up on a balconey, blissfully buzzed on some alcohol-laced fizzy delight, kicked back in a lawnchair, watching the lighting of fireworks, when one that was meant to spin on the ground, decided to take flight--flew right up and bounced off my knee, zipped right past my head, bounced off a window and landed who knows where. Oh dear, crossing my fingers we get outta that BBQ before they pull out the lighters.
LOL...whew! that was a close call...Yes, I have some of those in my family. I keep my distance, and I hope you stay safe from a$$hats with fireworks. But I also hope you get to see some great fireworks waaaay up in the air where they should be
Oh fer sher....I keep my distance, no doubt. This entire town is lit up like a combat zone on the 4th, it started a couple days ago when all the fireworks tents opened up for business, but tonight will be especially nuts.
There will be adults and children alike, crouched in the streets, lighting one, two or ten at a time...the kids will be darting around looking for "duds" that they will later empty out and try to make into one big explosive~~yep people will get hurt~~there has already been 2 apartment complex fires since yesterday, fireworks related.
The one thing that's kind of cool, if you are out driving this area at night on the 4th, you can see plenty of stuff up in the sky shooting from a zillion driveways and streets, and it actually looks kind of cool in the beginning, but then a heavy haze of sulfur(?)forms in the air, and hangs there til dawn, it absolutely chokes me! GAH!
That reminds me of another reason to get home early...so that no one burns down our house while we're gone, we haven't had any rain for more than a week, it's very dry right now.

The police here have already arrested a few people bringing illegal fireworks in already. Our police go to PA and follow drivers back and arrest them when they get into the jurisdiction. I'm not sure if I agree with the method, but I would rather not be assaulted by random fireworks either. Some people...*sigh*
I think it's the best rendition I've ever heard. These little girls are young women now and still singing.
Ahh, yeah, kind of similar here, except it's the Oregonians who have much stricter laws regarding what's a legal firework there, so they drive over here to buy their "good stuff". Having said that, there's much "gooder good stuff" at the indian reservation, so plenty of peeps go there too, and there's plenty of garage chemists too, who make their own, thanks to the internet and all the great directions to create things.
The worst 4th of July fireworks related thing that ever happened to me was 15 years ago or so...we had gone to the tow yard where my husband was working at the time, for a party with his co-workers, and since it was right down by Fort Vancouver, we were gonna get a slammin' view of the big fireworks show.
Well, of course people were drinking and getting crazy...and while I was kicked back in my chair, awaiting the big show, one of the dum-chit drivers had a "M-1000" my husband later told me it was equivalent to 1/2 a stick of dynamite--the guy lit the thing just on the other side of the parking lot, it was the loudest thing ever, not only that, it literally shook my brain, it made my jaw slam shut, I was seeing stars, I had an instant migraine and got sick, my son bit his tongue, ....blech...my husband ended up putting my car on the hook and brought me home in the tow truck.
Oh yeahhhhhhh the 4th, good times for Ol' Zooks. lol
