Gladstone Home Explosion-Fireworks Accident?

GLADSTONE — “No Fireworks Allowed!” (Except When They're Sold Next to a Gas Station) In a stunning display of logic only local government could master, authorities have confirmed that a recent home explosion was not due to a gas leak. They indicated that fireworks—banned within Gladstone city limits—are likely what caused a recent home explosion, although the investigation is still on going. Naturally, this shocking revelation has led officials to reflect deeply on how such a tragedy could occur in a city where fireworks are strictly prohibited... except for the part where you can buy them right on the edge of town.

The City of Gladstone announced with deep, bureaucratic regret that the 2025 Farmers Market season at the historic Atkins-Johnson Farm and Museum has been canceled . That’s right — the dreams of freshly plucked radishes, artisanal soaps, and those slightly overpriced heirloom tomatoes have officially withered on the vine. Why, you ask? According to city officials, the collapse of this sacred weekend ritual can be blamed on a “series of challenges” — which is code for “we lost one guy who grew lettuce and couldn’t find enough squash.” Apparently, the entire operation was hanging by the fragile thread of one key vendor, whose departure was enough to send the whole season crumbling like a stale scone. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any more predictable — let’s not forget the nationwide shortage of actual farm wo...
