There were some fireworks here in Temecula last night, where my parents' house is. We took my little nephews out to watch for a little bit (not to the fireworks show locations, but outside the house, where we still had a good view), but they were too young to appreciate it.

My little four year-old nephew liked his uncle's version of fireworks, though. You know. No pyrotechnics, but lots of sound. The kind where your body makes the sounds... Oh wait.

Me and my friends launched about 200 mortar rounds here in Orofino. We only had one incident. Aka, a mortar round got thrown in the fire. (Accidentally) You guys would have had fun. If you ever want to play w/ fire works, come to Orofino. No one cares what you launch here! The bigger the better.

What do you guys think about the Antec 300 case.

Oh wow, Anqt. Reminds me of the time when my dad told me about how he and my uncles once built a cannon out of bamboo (true story!). You see, New Year's Eve back in the Philippines is when all the fireworks and firecrackers go kaboom (July 4th here in the States may be pretty with fireworks, but it is NOTHING compared to the sound and fury of New Year's Eve in the Philippines).

Anyway, so they built this cannon out of bamboo. Big bore cannon, not a very long one. They pack this thing full of gunpowder, light the fuse...

Let's say it was plenty loud... and that it woke half the town up when it went BOOM.

I give the antec 300 a "meh"/10. It's nothing really special. If you can, go for the antec 900, or a CM690.

Or a Coolermaster cosmos...

Schweet.

I sent mine off on tuesday, but given the high phail index of canada post lately, you'll probably be stuck waiting 7-10 days. .

BTW, what accesories did you want with the card? (I can ship any that you want via padded envelope).
