Post something good that happened today

[P7PSP]

Here in California most fireworks are banned in most counties. People wanting firecrackers or bottle rockets have to go next door to Nevada or go to San Francisco and buy them from Chinatown gangs. This state sucks.

Considering the forest fires you've had, and how easily they happen, I'm not surprised.

Your gun laws are cool and the clima too.  Here is -8 ^oC now...

They are banning 4" mortars in Sweden after New Year's Eve, but the guy who I bought from today said that it's not a problem.

So move, then. Bye now.

California is pretty brave.

-sigh-

Why don't you move? I don't get it. Why stick around, why whine endlessly, instead of doing something about your situation?

He has been there5-6 times but has never succeeded to get a US citizenship.

I understand myself why there are ordinances regarding when and where fireworks are appropriate odeon. Out in the wilderness is definitely not appropriate, natural causes and arson appear to be the leading causes of wildfires. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1110768/causes_of_california_wildfires_check.html?cal=8  http://www.livescience.com/environment/080624-ap-lightning-wildfires.html

My gripe in my earlier post actually relates more to a general nanny state mentality running this state than specifically to fireworks. Wyoming has very few restrictions on types of fireworks available but I'm certain they'd nail anyone for starting a wildfire by tossing a cigarette out their window or with fireworks if they caught them, as they should. Anti tobacco fanatics and Animal Rights types are seeking to force people to conform to their version of Utopia here and it gets old pushing back every year. A law was passed with Prop 10 that was supposed to save smokers from themselves and fund pre school initiatives for kids but what it did was create a new political patronage job for every county with 80% of the money and Rob Reiner used significant amounts of the other 20% to lobby to try and force parents to send their kids to pre school at age 3. http://cssrc.us/web/1/news.aspx?id=293&AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1 If I move to Nevada it won't be for the more relaxed fireworks laws. As long as I do live in California I'll continue to try and derail the busybodies that want to run others lives for them. I'm not a smoker either, I just figure it's their decision to smoke or not.

I had an amazing night of sleep, yesterday - almost four hours, nonstop. I attacked the day like Achilles' blade and landed on winged feet.

It is well past time for me to have fallen out and found rest again, though. Twenty two hours ago, I began the day at my bag, worked up one helluva sweat, did it again about five hours ago and by all rights, I should be exhausted enough to sleep again.

I suppose this should be in the Bitchin' thread, because I am still hyper. I normally get only about half an hour to an hour of bag time, but today I took three and a half hours. It's an early day tomorrow and I should be asleep, but it's not happening.

I saw something on Discovery about the forest fires. I had no idea they could happen so easily in California. No reason to have another thoughtless smoker or a freak lightning storm when there are plants practically designed to ignite on their own.
