Don't know who's doing what, but for those Merkins who post here, we're grilling steaks and burgers and bratwursts and whatnot, lighting low powered explosives on fire and probably drinking lots of adult beverages in some quarters.  BTW, this is a celebratory thread keep your negative comments to yourself or start a new thread.

Anyway:
HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!

Completely changed for GenDisc consumption.

Happy 4th of July everyone! (http://www.classicbattletech.com/forums/Smileys/alive/beerchug.gif)

(At least this time reply to the topic before locking so I can change it if I need to ;))

Jeez, how many tries does it take you people to make a decent thread? :p

My inexperienced self already managed to screw up grilling hamburgers, but I guess that's par for the course.  A few of the neighbors have enough fireworks to set up a professional display, so that should be fun.

It took us four this year. :D

My fireworks were last week.  Other than that, I have done absolutely nothing today ;).

Went out for my mum's 65th Birthday, which is the only relevance the 4th July has for me, since I'm not American :nervous:

Watched the New York fireworks show, least 45 minutes of pyrotechnics.  I must admit its pretty amazing what they can accomplish these days.

I didn't get to see Tura attacked by a firecracker, but I heard a lot about it. I think it's cause he's not really Merkin.

It was a great day, until an artillery shell firework backfired and shot me in the chest.

Well, I mean obviously you are OK you are posting, but what I meant is you aren't injured in some fashion are you?

It's really amazing how many words you can get out with a gaping, charred hole in your chest.

I went and visited my hometown. No fireworks because we've been having a drought, so there's a burn ban. Also, a HUGE fire broke out in the nearby countryside. I found myself driving towards the giant plume of smoke to hang out at a friend's house. :nervous:

I got a little tenderized and was bruised for a few days, but I'm alright now. It knocked me on my rear and hurt like hell at the time.
