Virtual Guy Fawkes party

Yeah Zen matey, but regrettably we're not allowed to do it for real !!!

 

i like when pyrotecnics are used to paint pictures at ground level.
its not something people get to see very often any more, mostly because there are too many people to be able to see them and to seldom are they done.
i find this odd in thus era of video transmission capabilities.

i remeber when i was little, we always had these. not on this day, because in the u.s. most of us never heard of it, but on our fourth.
but that was a time when populations were much smaller, and the world of available technologies was also much more limited.

i have no nostelgia for their lack, or the frustrations to me that resulted from it,
but people were forced by it to develop and rely on their imaginations more, and that part was maybe not so all bad.

things you couldn't take for granted because they simply did not exist yet.
like these little computers, or even almost everyone having cars, or cars being the first thing therefore they thought of in the context of transportation.
we had commercial aircraft, but they were very expensive to fly and none of them were jets yet either.
yes i'm talking about the 1950s and before.

 

Love that post. X
