When the 1/1/2010 gets posted, just scroll down to the 9:30 area and see if anything fits.

We heard shot-like noises that afternoon which turned out to be bottle rockets. Late celebrants, one assumes.

I think it depends on brand, bullet weight, etc.
I've got some handloads that go "BANG, BANG" but as you can tell from the all caps they must be +p.
