Maybe I'm starting to get a bit more crotchety as I get older.
I am starting to dislike this country's mid summer birthday bash or more precisely, around here the week leading up to and the week after the 4th. Indiana is one of the state's with "legal" fireworks sales and my neighbors definitely take full advantage of their right to purchase and use them. I'm not anti fireworks or anti fun, but when do my rights to a get good night's sleep kick in? The folks around here start blowing stuff up at least a week before the holiday and continue thereafter for at least another week or so. We are not talking firecrackers or bottle rockets either. We are talking the big stuff M-80s, sky mortars the whole 9 yards, sounds like artillery some nights. Somebody around this neighborhood here has been lighting off something that rattles the windows and shakes the whole house. Right now one of those multi whistling and exploding rocket things is going off two doors down!! :angry:
Off my soap box now thanks for the opportunity to vent, I feel better already!
