I know how you feel. We have yahoos living close by that had a pretty big fireworks night last SATURDAY. They carried on until about 11PM. What assholes! The only good thing is we've been running our air conditioning 24/7, which helps cut down on the noise a bit. This weekend should be a real BLAST. (Pun definitely intended.)
Rockford in the 60's outlawed even firecrackers and bottle rockets, all we had were snakes and sparklers, and I thought that the snakes were completely useless. I thought that the lack of fireworks was insane.
Now I am done....too loud and too many people who lack decency.
