Fall Posted January 21, 2002 Share Posted January 21, 2002 Yeah, who would let off fireworks this time of year? 'Cause I heard you can get very big fines and stuff if they catch you.....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyGirl Posted January 21, 2002 Share Posted January 21, 2002 [color=deeppink]That happens around my house a lot because we have a pond behind our house and kids hide out back there...:shifty: By the way, Defcon, your location cracks me up. I've been to Hell, Michigan, and it is merely this tiny little town with silly tourist trap things to get your picture taken with satan and weird crap like that :drunk: It's also in the middle of nowhere...a ver quaint little place Hell is...[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan L Posted January 21, 2002 Share Posted January 21, 2002 Well, where I live, 'bonfire night' (I dunno whether you have that outside the UK or not.. I'd doubt it - it's a day where we basically have bonfires and fireworks and such.. there's a bit of history involved which i dont have the patience to go into..) may as well be called 'bonfire month or-so', cos people start setting off fireworks three weeks before bonfire night, and finish three weeks after, just in time for 'new year's month or so'.... all I can say is '...'

[/B][/QUOTE] no, people outside the UK do not have bonfire nights, or to be more specific, Guy Fawkes night, since it was an incident that only happened in the UK.... I don't see the point of it though, guy fawkes was burnt at the stake some 100+ years ago, and people celebrate his death every year by lighting fireworks and bonfires, quite sick, if you ask me....

I think its just meaningless these days.. an excuse to star a fire and use explosives... oh yeah I suppose it is quite sick though, when some people make this 'guy fawkes' character out of wood and such, and then burn it on the bonfire....

[/B][/QUOTE] the guy did a wrong by trying to blow up a building, but he paid the price with his life, people should just leave it at that, rather than celebrate his death, he was not even the main character that was involved in the incident, I think someone called dermail was the main guy....
