turtlespeed 226 #1 December 31, 2003 And the time comes again for the dreaded fireworks post( if there is one) So I ask you (not that it makes much difference) - If you could would you buy fireworks and set them off at midnight? Or are you too scared?I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdC 0 #2 December 31, 2003 You can buy them in Ohio if you sign a waiver that states you will not set them off in Ohio. Watch out for one called "The Big Griz." It is damn near professional grade and will scare the hell out of the little old lady next door. Big Ed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This year, I'll be that young curmudgeon yelling at the kids to knock it off and calling the cops because I have to work tomorrow.

Bet you could go into a store an buy a bazooka, but not fireworks. In Norway it's legal to buy and light them up for everyone at new years eve. But only then. The rest of the year you need a permit from the fire department or the police i think. Didn't get any this year. Next time I light up fireworks it's going to be a two stage rocket There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
