This weekend I went to see a belated fireworks show in Addison. As with any fireworks show it started off slow, gradually building up to the finale. And it was quite a finale. As the show climaxed and the fireworks went off in an overwhelming frenzy, I realized that fireworks make us act like little kids. Try to envision it: 6 adults representing 8 college degrees (so far) using words like "mitosis" and "Bunsen burner" in casual conversation. Then the finale comes and all of that disappears. All we could do was smile and laugh, and then cheer and clap like a bunch of little kids. It was great, innocent fun.
