I have noticed as I have aged, that the acceptable hour for lighting and exploding of fireworks has become earlier and earlier. I think that I have now got to the point that it is not acceptable to light them off after July 2nd. I figure next year, I will push it back into June.
Well it is not I do not like fireworks or the noise it makes. It is more to do with practicality. When some of us need to go to work after the 4th it is difficult with out proper sleep ;)
