Do you have a wood burning fire place?

[bluetang]

Well I'm kind of new at this burning wood in the fireplace stuff. I was given some wood to burn, so I dont have to go and buy some or find some laying around.
Well I think I know why....I think the logs were laced with Mighty Mite Fire crackers or bullets. They crackle and pop so loud, I was getting scared that a log was going to jump out of the fire and onto the carpet. I had to turn up the TV to hear it at times. Now I'm fairly sure the wood isn't Cedar, but dont know what it really is.

What type of wood is the best for burning that doesnt sound like Halloween night in my living room?

Don't really want to destroy my living room
