Enjoy Your Fireworks

I'll be in New York from Thursday to Monday, so you won't be hearing from me. Enjoy your fourth of July, preferably with fireworks. Here are some fireworks notes and tips I've whipped up.

1. Fireworks are Manly:
You want to be manly, don't you? Unless you're a woman, but even then, you should be manly when it comes to fireworks. Allow me to summarize this for you: Fuck the law, fireworks are awesome.

2. No fireworks at the Olympics:
If you're one of the lucky people going to the Olympics this year (even though the winter ones are infinitely better), you won't be seeing any fireworks there, so soak it up, and enjoy them on Friday. I wouldn't try and sneak in your own fireworks to try and be a rebel, if 24 has taught me anything, it's that you don't fuck with the Chinese.

3. Get Awesome Fireworks Pictures:
Want to get pictures like the ones in this article? Well, #1 is dependent on there being a storm, but other than that one. Here are some excellent tips to get better pictures in general. Some of these are photography basics, but there are some ones in here that I had never heard.
