Guy has my vote…:lol:

Rod,

Isn’t that what we at times wish we could do to some people? Whuuuush, right over the moon. :wink: :slight_smile:

Maybe I shouldn’t say this, but that guy is a real dumb ass. Sphincter factor definitely took control. Sometimes we just need video to really understand the entire situation. Can you imagine the 911 call. People laughing, crying, trying to call for help for the guy. Justice is a wonderful thing.

I usually argue that Darwin’s hypothis is wrong, but I’ll make an exception in this case.

Perhaps this is an example of the social “Peter Principle?”

I’ve got to continue - I shouldn’t. I have no business even reading stuff on this site.

Okay, imagine the new disclaimer placed on fireworks that is going to be part of the settlement when this guy goes after the fireworks manufacturer.

Oh my God, the court case. The jury pool trying to hold a straight face. I know judges that deserve to have this case in their court room.

Imagine Leno’s and Letterman’s monologues.

And to think that people want to make fun of us for playing with toy trains.

Ric,

Not to mention the theme song that will follow him everywhere: “Rocket Man” by Elton John!

And of course the real life re-enactment of the whole episode. I know, I know, usually they use dummies for the purpose. They won’t need one in this case! :wink: :slight_smile:

Boy! Talk about getting torn a new… uh… a new… er… well, anyway, getting a new one torn!

That musta hurt!

How do you explain something like that? “Well, you see, it was like this. I was just walking back from the bar when this big firecracker jumped out and bit me on the backside.” Or, “I didn’t see it when I sat down.”

Ohh ya say ya want video??? Well not the same guy…but the same foolishness!!!

Bart, I’ll just have to take your word for it. They say I have to prove I’m over 18 by signing up or logging in…:frowning:

Warren

Ok…so I have it inserted; how do I light it without burning myself; I can’t see back there…and there is no-one around to light it for me ?

Get a longer fuse, Fred… :smiley:

Have you ever tried a cigarette fuse. Insert the fuse part way into a non-filter, lit cigarette. That will give you about a 10 minute delay while you are inserting it…:stuck_out_tongue:

Warren

Whassamatter Fred? I suspect he could see it quite clearly, nevermind reach it.

Just a thought, but the article never mentions which way the rocket was pointing?

Quoting from the article in question:

"A spokesman for the Firework Association…said: ‘We have spent a long time working with the government to create laws that make fireworks safer and better for the public…’ "

Yeah, that’s exactly what’s needed here! Still another government-mandated label on the package: “Caution: May be hazardous to health if inserted…”

Oh, never mind! (I wish we had a “head shaking in disbelief” smiley).
