    Happy 'Birthday' to all in the United States on this 239th Anniversary of the presentation of the Declaration of Independence to the Continental Congress and its adoption, which announced our independence from the nation of England.

    And as we celebrate this holiday, always remember this -

    "If you should go forth with a fifth on the fourth, then on the fifth, you might not come forth!" :D

    I wonder if our forefathers would celebrate or cry if they were to see the state of the USA today?

    There was a sign on the counter of one of our local stores for the last week. Simply put it said " We will be closed the 3rd and 4th of July for the observance of Independence Day (or at least whats left of it)"
