As a non-parent, one thing that I've learned is that parents do NOT like someone else parenting, no matter the intentions.
 
Seemed it wasn't that way when I was growing up.  EVERYONE, it seemed, told me what to do and not do.

I was actually kinda surprised myself.  The radio station that sponsored it, like I said before, only plays Top 40 hits... so of course you know that 90% of it is pop music.  So to hear Def Leppard, Bruce Springsteen, and such, it was kind of a nice twist.  Of course, now it's back to everyday stuff.  I probably would have enjoyed it all so much more if the Firefighter in me wasn't watching all these little kids (we're talking 6 and 7 year olds) running around with fireworks and a lighter.  One kid there, with his parents in the car parked behind us, had one of those fountain fireworks, that you set on the ground, and it shoots sparks about 6 feet into the air... well, it didn't light properly... fuse burned down then went out.  So here he is (couldn't be older than 8) with the firework in one hand, lighter in another, trying to light it... and the parents are just sitting there minding their own business.  I was about to go over and explain to him the value of keeping all your body parts as long as possible, and the concept of third degree burns and skin grafts, when he decided it was time to switch the brain back on, and threw it away.  There really needs to be some better education about this stuff out there... for the parents more than the kids... {=o/
