http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottle_rocket

"A bottle rocket is a very small skyrocket. A typical bottle rocket consists of a rocket engine attached to a stabilizing stick. The user can place the stick in an empty bottle (hence the name), and ignite the rocket engine; the mouth of the bottle guides the stick, stabilizing the rocket in its first moments of flight."

Please don't try this where people are gathered... but if people are gathering, its safe to say your rocketry is very good! :o
