This is a great one from Rhett and Link.
The song by itself is really good, when added to
the video it’s a howl.
Very well done, well worth time to view it.
Some great lines here…

Homer Simpson has testosterone.
As such the need to blow stuff up is intense.
Normally kept in check, the July 4th holiday
has made it well up something fierce.
Apu fills the need.
Marge is unsure of the nights festivities.
It certainly won’t involve washing the dishes…

A wonderful little ditty from two of the four original
members of Da Vinci’s Notebook.
Paul and Storm, Paul Sabourin and Greg DiConstanzo,
sing their hearts out in this one.
A cautionary tale of woe and 3rd degree burns.
Be safe and sane this 4th of July!
Or, at the very least, go out with a bang…

Furthering the timeline of Stan Freberg’s masterpiece finds
us in the house, and backyard, of the portly and dynamic
Ben Franklin’s residence.
I love the irreverence that Stan had in putting this together.
He makes Ben a bit of an artist here, of the con variety.
You never know, he could be spot on.
History has a way of correcting itself after a while.
This could be exactly how it unfolded…

As told by Tim Wilson.
I got as close as you can get in fireworks short
of being a professional.
But then again…I was indeed a pro.
My father and I used to sell fireworks we bought
off the boats in Boston, right from China.
Chinese fireworks were always the best on the planet.
Also the least expensive, we purchased huge amounts
of the stuff for next to nothing.
I was selling bricks of firecrackers for 3 bucks, bottle
rockets for 5 bucks a gross, and roman candles for 3
a dozen…and still making a killing!
And did we put on displays, vast amounts of ground
and aerial, with several kinds of percussive types.
The smell of gunpowder would stay in my nose well
into August after a decent 4th of July event.
Those were the days.
And yes, M80s were powerful back then…
