Fourth of July

In the end, I always come to the same conclusion when I look at US history:

Big place, Texas

And lots of steers.

Everything's bigger in Texas...

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII... wouldn't know. 🙄

No comment Dim... 😉 😂 😮‍💨
Queeg, there are as many steers and cows in Texas' back yards as the British have castles or knights in their back yards. They are still around but not everyone has one and some still havent even seen a steer.

And yes my friend knew the owner of a fireworks stand and he was able to clear out most of the leftovers. We had close to 100 bottle rockets several roman candles and lots of other missles and explosives.

We launched about one a minute and my other friend's kids did most of the lighting. (thats the fun part of being a kid).

It was the most I've launched in a long time and as I said before it was a blast.

😮‍💨

That sounded like fun. Glad you folks didn't start any range fires with all those fireworks. 😄

This is America ya know. I dont even know where the closest range is. We were in a field, but the worry was setting a neighbor on fire. But that was still very far and impossable to hit from our distance.

It also wasn't as dry as in the past few years, otherwise it might have been a definate fire hazard.

My brother and his next-door neighborhor (about 20 years ago) used to fire bottle rockets at each other if one of them was out on his riding mower. Everytime one of them went out to cut the grass, they were fair game. 😂

EVERY Englishman has a castle and a knight in their backyard. I don't get your point. 😂

I wanna castle with a knight...how do I get those things???

As soon as I figure that one out, Dimmy, I'll let ya know, babe. 🤣

Time travel I think.

I think I'd be happy with harsher punishment for parole violators... and world peace. 😂 😂 😂

Marry an Englishman, Dimmy. And find that knight on shining armour. He's there, if anywhere. 🙄

(mutters to self) If only Mel Gibson were English.....

The man who starred in Braveheart AND the Patriot?

yeah neither a Scot or a Yank, man this world lack heroes 🙄

🙁

Mel IS a yank, BTW finti.

why so many sad faces, darling ? You're polluting the forum with blue.

Queeq, that's the dumbmest thing you've said in a while.

Think she's had enough of English men. 😂

🙁

No, it's true. Everybody thinks he's Australian, but that is wrong. He was born in the States, he is an American, he just grew up in Australia and started his acting career there. He is still a yank, though. Go and check, I am right on this one.
