This is the annual weekend that Americans roam the streets hunting British, but only the ones with green cards ... :wink: :mrgreen:

Joe Dirt: So your gonna' tell me that you don't have no black cats, roman candles, or screaming mimis?
Kicking Wing: No.
Joe Dirt: Oh come on man. You got no lady fingers, fuzz buttles, snicker bombs, church burners, finger blasters, gut busters, zippity do das, or crap flappers?
Kicking Wing: No, I don't.
Joe Dirt: You're gonna stand there, owning a fireworks stand, and tell me you don't have no whistling bungholes, no spleen spliters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker donts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single whistling kitty chaser?
Kicking Wing: No... because snakes and sparklers are the only ones I like.
Joe Dirt: Well that might be your problem, it's not what you like, it's the consumer.

That's about all you can get in California anyway, and you have to mortgage the house and sell a few body parts to get them. :mrgreen:

Here's a video of Halgar celebrating the 4th a few years ago. I'm pretty sure he went back to launching the bottle rockets from his teeth after this incident. :lol:

On a side note, am I the only one getting an ad for "laser hair removal" when I play the video? :shock:

I don't know, the rocket fire and that ad just seems like a very strange coincidence to me. :lol:

We just prefer coffee, that's all it boils down to :wink:
