I once set off a bag of firecrackers right beside the kitchen table, on the 4th of July, while walking through the kitchen to go to the bathroom to wash my hands. I was going to leave the bag on the shelf in my room. My parents had to scrape firecracker residue off all the food. They were not pleased. Must have been at least 100 or more firecrackers in that bag. Taught me not to ever put a punk that I thought I had snuffed out in the sack containing firecrackers.

The political reference was that during the election season of 2024, US Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer wanted to make himself look like the “common man” and posted a photo or video of himself grilling burgers on a back yard grill, wearing an apron and holding a big spatula. The problem? He (or one of his aides) had put a slice of cheese on each of the raw hamburger patties setting on the grill. Some “common man”. As a sub-plot, he is Jewish and rabbis say that Jews are not supposed to eat meat and diary in the same meal. It was so widely reported (and mocked) at the time that I thought everyone would get the reference. Sometimes the PR stunts of politicians backfire on them.
