Today is the 4th of July here in the United States. I get a lot of overseas visitors who may not get that today is essentially a celebration of our nation's Independence Day that traditionally combines some sort of cookout, alcohol, and fireworks. You can leave out the food and drink, but fireworks are a mainstay.
Most communities have some sort of organized firework display because fireworks are dangerous and expensive. Tonight I'll go to a friend's house that overlooks the valley and I'll get to see about 30 fireworks displays going off at once. It is pretty epic.
Did I mention fireworks are dangerous? The fine folks over at World Wide Interweb put together a video entitled "The Ultimate Fireworks Fail Compilation"
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this video is easily worth a million.
Be safe out there guys.....seriously.
