Sure it wasn't gun shots?

Yes. We saw them out the window after a sprang from my bed to see who was being stupid.

I would love to find out who was setting off fireworks in my neighborhood last night at 1:30AM. I want to go wish them a VERY merry Christmas.

Presumably at 1:30am in the morning as well? :-D

I can picture you duct taping a loudspeaker to their windows, and yelling "HO HO HO, Merry Christmas"  at 1:30am Christmas Eve as they go to sleep. Not giving you any ideas or anything. :whistle:

Actually, my plan was to stick one of their fireworks where the sun doesn't shine and lighting it. Did I mention that these were the big display type fireworks?

Yeah, getting a 4" wide mortar shell up there might be a bit of a challenge. :-D \

BTW, I didn't know they are legal in Ohio?

Honestly I don't even like fireworks on the 4th. Was fun when I was a kid but just annoying now.

They're not legal in NJ and plenty of people have them. My old neighborhood had somebody that liked to set off fireworks at random times for no apparent reason. Really annoying.

Yes, but with a modern twist. Loud booms that wake me up definitely make me grinchy. ;-)

Lol me too. One night a BOOM shook the house. It turned out to be a gas explosion that lifted some poor souls house off its foundation. Just knowing that kinda mistake thing can happen takes the fun out of fireworks like m80s. Although I do have fond memories of spray paint cans hurtling skyward before blowing up into multicolored mushroom clouds.

Yep. Saw it on the news. This kid got shot attempting to rob the guy who shot him. I say good. It's not good that he's dead, but he is definitely not a victim.

I can't decide how I feel about it really, I mean they are shoes, why shoot someone over them. At the same time, you shouldn't be pulling a gun on someone to steal their shoes either.

you don't know if the guy is going to shoot you after he gets the shoes. If someone pulls a gun on you and you have a gun, you shoot first and ask questions later.

True enough, a lot of what ifs when it comes to these types of scenarios. I'll just never understand how shoes can be worth such actions.

Agreed.  It's easy to say 'he got whats coming to him' and I wouldn't even attempt to argue that.  It's true, he did.

But I would like to ask the shooter today, and again in a year, two, 5, whatever, if he thinks it was worth killing a man over a pair of shoes.

Definitely not worth it over a pair of shoes.

The shooter did not know that it would stop with the shoes though did he?  I think that is the point @CarlSpackler ake.

    • Day 312 - Better finishing position, fuller backswing, PRGR to see how swing speed was. 
    • Going to a Friendsgiving tomorrow and I am bringing a no-bake cheesecake. I make the crust too big, but I think it turned out good. The filling is really good. 
    • Sure, but how was your alignment? 🙂 Day 53 - 2024-11-22 Mirror work after getting back home. Wife is a superstar for her career/job/whatever.
    • I would say your back nine is the second nine you play that day. It's part of what makes getting some of those holes tougher. Or, if 18 holes are played pretty often, out of A, B, and C, and you often play A and C, A is the front and C is the back, regardless of the order you play them in. That way not birdieing C #7 isn't overcome by birdieing the easier A #7 on a day you played it C-A instead of A-C. But, at the end of the day, nobody really cares except yourself.
    • Day 128: played 9. Nice little even 9, with 2 birdies and 2 bogeys.
