::Next Year, It's A Guy With A Flashlight

A few days ago, i watched a report on the local news that mentioned this year would be the last year that San Francisco could launch 12" diameter fireworks. This was because of new security measures instituted by the DHS which require large fireworks to be shipped into Louisiana, then loaded on special rolling bunkers for transport. You know, so that the terrorists don't change our way of life.

i can only imagine the scenario that played out in someone's mind.

Akbar, i have a great idea! Instead of using easily hideable and cheap plastic explosives to make our suicide belts, lets use a 30lb ball of unstable black powder!
Fine, but only if it has those little sparkly streamer things. Ooh, and it whistles!
Ok, ok, but remember, stay off the nylon carpeting, and for Allah's sake, don't touch metal! Remember what happened to Akmed?
Ooo. Ahhh.
Stop that.
Sorry, habit

Gotta admit, i bet F. Scott Key would be proud of this free country. (Although he might have to modify things a bit.)

In the rocket tossed glo-stick's red glare,
the bombs guy with a bunch of inflated paper bags bursting in air,
gave truth reasonable understanding in the night
that our flag was still there removed from a threat environment and placed in an appropriate underground bunker.

You think the terrorists are getting tired of doing victory laps yet?
