Happy 4th


The kids across the street are blowing stuff up.


It reminds me of the Vietnam vet that lived across the street from a friend of mine. Needless to say, they were both insane. My friend would light off a miniature black powder cannon he made. Fill it back up and wait. . .


because usually a few minutes after it went off, the vet would come outside and scream at him. Then the cannon would fire again.


The vet hit the ground, usually for a couple of minutes.


It makes me wonder with a fresh war out there and a lot of casualties, how many vets are hitting the ground freaking out now with fireworks overhead?
