Independence Day 2011!!!

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!

Today our great nation turns 235 years old. You have to admit she looks pretty good for her age despite the numerous issues facing the country right now.

So enjoy the holiday, the final day of a long holiday weekend. And let's hope that tomorrow is the beginning of what becomes the defining week of the NFL lockout, with representatives for the players and owners prepared to meet all four days with the pressure mounting to at least reach an agreement in principle.

Star-divide

Oh - and no. It's not the Fourth of July until I hear this song at least once.

Happy 4th folks!

Enjoy the day.

We’re all off to work here in the Great White North. Last Thursday we celebrated the 144th anniversary of withdrawing from British rule with their permission as long as we kept their monarch on our money and agreed to host royal honeymoon trips at our expense.

Happy Independence Day

Free to leave Home and Brave the throngs DC in the Twilight’s Last Gleaming to watch the Rocket’s Red Glare and Bomb’s Bursting in Air.

I will agree to disagree with you - as long as you understand that I'm right.

Have a great 4th...

It’s not even 8AM and I am already thinking about grilled brats and cold beer while watching the city’s fireworks show over the lake. We have a fireworks ban due to the drought. You can buy them but not light them. That’s OK, I will not suffer my traditional leg that come from getting drunk and trying to impress the neighborhood kids by jumping through the fountains!

2010 was like rubbing out an easy one with steel wool and crest toothpaste. . .PAINFUL!

Soon the Matty's will be happening and I will not even get a mention! However, I bring the highest level of conversation to this site...WTF?

Happy 4th to my American friends.

I support your war of terror!

Happy Fourth of July!!

You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism. ~Erma Bombeck
