Fireworks just aren't what they used to be. Bottle rockets, sparklers, and flares have been replaced with poppers that shoot streamers and glow worms that look like a pile of growing dog poo. I miss writing my name through the air with a flaming tin stick that shoots off little flesh burning sparks.

I agree completely! At least growing up in Idaho, we could buy the safe and sane fountains, sparklers, etc., with an occassional sneak over the border to Wyoming for the dumb and dangerous bottle rockets, fire crackers and m-80s. These overly decorated champaign poppers they sell around the 4th in Phx are party favors, not fireworks.
