...on God's green earth.
Here's to the finest collection of her land stewards!
Bless all those that fought, and continue to fight, to give us this opportunity. We shan't waste the chance.
Bless the U.S.

What makes a great country...is great individuals working together as one. E Pluribus Unum. Not groups working for their own identity.
Pass the word. Happy and Safe 4th of July. Thanks Brettski.

Happy 4th to all. Please be safe. And as an on the side....JHAP,try not to blow yourself up today Are you kiddin. They don't let me near anything that explodes. Heck I don't even get to use pointy adult sissors, I have to use the rounded kiddie sissors - which by the way can still give your tongue a nasty cut - trust me on this.

Happy 4th of July, Mabros (short for my Brothers; and word out to the occasional fine sisters)!
Raining here in SW PA, but I'm with family and friends.

It is important to recall that the founders of this country (our forefathers) correctly held a strong belief that our collective freedom was more important than their (or any) individual lives.
As Lincoln said, "that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom .... " Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.

In Dog Beers, I've had one.
