“Exploding Rain: Mine would have 10 or 12 of those tiny fireworks that have really huge explosions go off, and once each pops, shimmery sparkles would come down.”

“All-American: I would do a red, white, and blue—something patriotic—that would go up high in the sky and have a lot of those colors bursting everywhere.”
