Default Steel wool fireworks

Any of you guys use steel wool for fireworks? I have been doing this all of my life, this is about 25 cents worth of steel wool on a string.
I know, not the best thing you ever saw, but the best thing for 25 cents.
This was yesterday at a friends beach house out east on the Long Island Sound.

Well I guess you go to Fish Town if you are in Queens. I live near a couple of LFSs but none I would consider good. There is New Hyde Park Pets around the corner from my house but it is not too good. Now the name is Puppies, Puppies or something like that.
My friend owns Pat Barn in Franklin Square which is better and one of his sales people just bought the place so he has a lot of stock because he is trying to make a go of the place. It is on Franklin Ave

Ive usually go to Fish Town. I just recently visited Pets of New Hyde Park because my friend told me that they had a sloth but when i got there the girl told me the sloth had died. Their tanks lookd horriable lots of dead fish and the guy working there didnt seem to know his ass from his elbow. Ill check out pet barn in franklin next time im out there. If your ever in queens the bobs tropical pets on myrtle ave is good, the one on jamacia ave is horriable though i wouldnt even walk in there is so dirty. Eventhough they have the same name and the same sign, two completly different owners, one who cares and one who doesnt. If your even in manhattan check out new world aquariums, its right outside of the mid town tunnel on 38th between 2nd and 3rd. AMAZING selection of salt water fish and corel. Makes me wish i had a salt water set up.

Thats interesting, they must have hired better help. They don't have a salt water guy, or even a fish guy, just dog people. They made the salt water section much smaller also. I just order stuff and when they bring it in, I take it from their shipping containers.
I recently got my blue stripped pipefish from them. I go there every few days because I live around the corner and I buy worms there.
My livestock lives for many years so I don't hardly ever buy fish
