I really enjoyed that video. My wife rolled her eyes, but I liked it. Thanks.
Happy 4th to you as well.

Not to mention they started three days ago. It kind of sucks living just outside the city limits this time of year.

The fire danger has gotten so acute all over California that one might as well go to the local indoor shooting range -- Shooters' Paradise, in Oxnard's case -- and make bang bang there. With blackpowder arms if you have any. They rent you guns there if you want, but they're all cartridge, I think.
Quote:
Intelligent or well-read Americans must keep in mind that America simply could not have become what she is without Mother England -- and a parturition that was admittedly not without its pain: two wars, bracketing the turn of the nineteenth century. For that reason, I can sing "Land of hope and glory, mother of the free..." and mean every syllable. Only later do we get into such republican sentiments, as contrasted with the monarchical, as our rewording of "God Save the King" [as it was then] into "My Country, 'Tis of Thee."

Brilliant!
I thought they were sparklers at first I couldn't see what the point was Glad I stuck with it though - whatever they were, they were well worth the effort. |

Hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th of July!
I was lucky this year: my friends live where their backyard is right behind where they do the fireworks. We had the best view in town! My friend was smarting off to people who snuck in from the cemetary into his backyard to watch. I was a bit embarrassed, saying "well, it's America, and it's our holiday, and we should all be friends today, right?" I said all this to no avail. Sigh...
