July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
How do you feel about fireworks? Should they be available to everyone or only professionals?![Merit Badge in BCoF 2

Congratulations on your virtual blogging adventure!](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/group-BCoF_2-1901868_14.gif) Hi from apondiaI'm not fond of fireworks. They frighten livestock, wild creatures, and tame creatures. They are a big bang with a spray of hot sparks. The majority of fireworks are also boring. Some fireworks can be entertaining but the really fascinating ones are rarely used. I'm guessing it is because the more intricate they are the more expensive they are. I'm not in favor of individual fireworks displays because it is dangerous to allow just anyone to set off fireworks in a back yard without consideration for the neighbors within your neighborhood. So, better to keep it in the hands of professionals and be sure they are regulated to provide the most safety possible. I'm pretty sure this will be an unpopular attitude. I have had some experience with this every year on July 4th. Or near the 4th. I'm also not a fan of the bombs they set off around this time of year. The atmospheric percussion can actually shake houses. There is a reason they are called FIREWORKS! Look forward to the July 4th picnics though. Just family fun. |
