Though many nations claim the invention, most historians agree that the Chinese invented fireworks in the 9th century when they discovered how to make gunpowder. The story is that a Chinese cook toiling in a field kitchen happened to mix three ingredients commonly found in the kitchen - potassium nitrate or saltpeter (a salt substitute), sulfur (a flammable solid) and charcoal (from charred wood). The cook noticed that, when ignited, the pile burned with a combustible force. The cook apparently also discovered that if these same ingredients were enclosed and then ignited, the combination exploded rather than burned. This explosion produced a loud sound perfect for frightening off spirits, celebrating weddings, and marking battle victories, eclipses of the moon, and the beginning of the New Year. |

after packing for most of the night i decided to go check out the fireworks. holy shat the music they were playing was crap.
luckily i had my headphones and cd player. After the fireworks i got lost in my own neighbour hood going left on nelson instead of right and wondering why I was the only one going down nelson. Canada did suck, I'll go to the rest. I picked a pretty rad spot to watch them. |

Veni & I moved some boxes to her new place, tried to make it to the cold beer & wine store for Mike, line up was around the corner so we decide to forget that.
Parked at Mikes work (smithe and beatty) .. told him lets go they start at 10. he replied "no no 10 30" so we left and got some fritz and made it to the beach in time to see the last one blow up. Grand Finale will be more organized! |

i went out with a few friends. we stopped off at the bourbon for a drink (we got dt around eight and didn't want to sit around for two hours on the beach) had a pitcher, went to another bar and had a few more drinks.
lol, we didn't even bother going to watch the fireworks. |
