Always relevant School House Rock.

Thanks for keeping it real with a little jazz music.

My flag is the US Flag.

Cheers.

Spoof "Weather Report" on local radio:

Some alcohol mixed with fireworks could lead to widely scattered fingers.

I'm on duty shift today and tomorrow (working a 48). I'm hoping people will be chill, and pass out drunk before fireworks start going off...

I thank god for Trump creating Salute America Day!

Why no one else ever thought of this is beyond me.

I just moved to the midwest earlier this year and I'm kind of alarmed by how few fireworks there are here compared to New England.

I guess it depends on which mid west state you are at.. here you can fire off fireworks one week before the 4th to one week after..there has been fireworks going off for days now

For sure. I work EMS and we have stations here. Slept all last night and I hope this station is the same.

Ohio has screwy rules:

You can buy and sell any kind of consumer grade fireworks, but only the ground based (smokers, snakes, sparklers, etc) are legal to set off.

If you go to a fireworks "outlet store" (I've heard) you have to sign a paper saying you will transport them out of the state within 24 hours.

For the most part, police aren't hunting down people that set them off.

Ah I never thought of that. They're banned for sale here in Minnesota, so people will go to Wisconsin to get them.

They're banned in Massachusetts too, but people drive to New Hampshire for them. You hear them going off on the beaches from the middle of June through September.

Yeah Michigan has a lot of crazy laws also...I can buy any fireworks out there and I can buy as many AR13 I want but...I could go to jail or large fine for owning a teaser...

Some years they have been cancelled due to fire risk. I didn't hear anything like that this year.

Our local city-sponsored fireworks were last night.

So there's plenty of "locals" going off now.
