I had those tiny firecrackers. They were called "ladyfingers".

When we were kids you could get a brick for a dollar or two. That was a lot of little bangs for a buck.
Interestingly, anything other than sparklers, snakes and poppers and the like have been illegal for years but my favorite dim sum restaurant in Cleveland lights off so many "illegal" firecrackers just outside their doorway during the Chinese New Year that you cannot see through the smoke. Never seen the police and they do it every year. The selection of food is awesome during the holiday so we try to get there one of the days each year! And who doesn't like the dancing dragon.
@Nifty - You probably have a gazillion places for dim sum in the San Fran area. Lucky guy!

Well I know I'm hooked. Even though I haven't got a 3D printer yet and I'm already drooling over all the nice filament colours. Saw a model plane printed with this stuff...you can see all the formers and ribs inside the wings etc.

BTW, I really like this guy's videos. A mix of RC and 3D Printing: https://www.youtube.com/user/RcLifeOnSimon
I like this video where he mixes a lot of different hobbies (go to 7:00 mark for rc boat):

I was disappointed in the video, what’s the point in a 3D fishing rod if you can’t catch any 3D fish...
Just another good reason to get yourself a 3D printer, it supports so many different hobby’s and sports, it really is a must have...
