Forget the meaning...I have to go look up the pronunciation of that one!

I thought the little speaker-soundy-thingy might work.

True story. Several years ago, at a truly wild
4th of July party, I saw a fellow do the exact
same thing with a Roman Candle.
Fortunately he planted and lit the correct ends
and seemed to have suffered no physical harm
from the experience. However, I think the torque
from each individual fireball may have altered
his lifestyle outlook....JJ61
