its June 7th and haven't heard a peep about any fireworks displays going on this year, but then my exposure to tulsa media is limited to about 5 minutes a day.

so what's going on where? and where should it be the best?

I haven't heard a word about fireworks displays this year. Odd there haven't been any announcements yet.

Isn't this how it usually goes, they wait till the last minute, threaten not to do it, then some corporate patron steps in?

The fireworks after the Driller game during the final pro race at Tulsa Tough Friday night was totally cool

Well I hope they don't have the company that did it last year again this year. I had people out to watch the show and it really sucked that it was over so quickly. It is usually such a great show.

I don't know, the family and I had a great view of the bridge exploding. Made for some interesting stories for the next few days.

Yeah, last year was a bust, but that happens when the whole thing blows up on you.

Maybe get some more expertise this year?

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Well there's this...

You can take a quiz to get money for our 4th of July.

I took the quiz to help us get $10,000.  Why not?

It's 8 questions and all simple.

And you don't have to get the questions right--just complete the survey and enter your ZIP code for it to count toward Tulsa's FreedomFest.

I grew up in Skiatook, so I always enjoyed going to Fantasy in the Sky on Skiatook Lake. Hundreds of boats on the water, reflections of the fireworks on the water... it's nice. Last year, I saw the Duck Creek display at Grand Lake. It was so-so compared to its hype.

I didn't see it last year but heard it sucked.

Hmm..isn't it a little early in the year for stocking up firewood??

J/K...I'm sure it was a typo.

It caught fire, so you can't blame the organizers.
