If you are going to rip off someone (Bill Cunningham) at least rip off someone who is funny.

We were so poor that we couldn’t get a .38 Special. We had to have a .38 Ordinary.

We were so poor, for fireworks, we had to blow up the neighbor’s house. Their car also went up in a spectacular secondary explosion.

We were so poor that instead of toys, dad cut the pockets out of our pants so we would have something to play with.

We were so poor one 4th July Weekend we painted an old plymouth woodie with brushes and a can of grey enamel. True story. Unfortunatly, it didn't come out looking like this one when we were done.

I had a whole pack of bottle rockets go off in my left hand 15 years ago. Turned the hand into one big blister. Didn’t scar, but the burn was bad enough that I haven’t enjoyed lighting fireworks since. I leave it to the professionals now.
