Independence Day

The United States is the only country with a known birthday.
  ~James G. Blai

Happy 235th Birthday, America!




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.
