Apple has changed processors AND OS on Macs several times already. Understand they are making it so the iphones, pads, and desktops all run the same chips/os so can work together better. Also when they were using non PC processors there was a mHz war that stopped when Apple put Intel Inside.

Shooting fireworks off and blowing things up were fun when I was a kid. Also had wars at my grandmothers where we threw firecrackers and shot pop bottle rockets at each other. Has a paper grocery sack with 2 800 firecracker strings unstrung and was running around throwing firecrackers out of. A pop bottle rocket landed in it and set the whole bag off. It made a fireball of crackers going all making a ball about 30 ft diameter. It was great. The neighborhood tried the rest of the weekend to duplicated but couldn't.

Durning thunderstorms my goldens would run towards the thunder and bark at it. At least until they learned it wasn't going to get them. There is a big amusement park 4 miles from us that does a display every night. My dogs got to where they just ignore fireworks. Before we moved here my olden would get in the bathtub during loud storms and fireworks. And trained her to be a good gun dog.

It was pretty funny the first time I took Penny to a big fireworks display. Thought she would be okay because she was a gun dog. She was fine until the finale, then she went bonkers and bolted. Even broke her leash. Jumped into a car full of Mexicans that opened a door as she approached. She went in on top of everyone and the mexicans came flying out! It was hilarious!

My nephew has morters and a sequencer and builds his own fireworks display. He is a pyro. This is the first year in several that he did not do a display. They do the display over a big pond at my brother's farm.
