Of course all around me was booming and banging all night.

Ditto. Glad we don't have a dog. I could hear them howling in nearby houses.

I always put mine down in the basement bedroom.

They're back at it again. No debris. Big mortar shells. Some must be 100 bucks a piece.

It's insane. You're lucky if you're not getting any debris. I'll be pulling little bits of red and blue plastic out of the flower beds for months. I don't remember fireworks having all this plastic crap when I was a kid.
