4th of July. Celebrate the birth of this great nation of ours, our freedoms and our rights.

And remember, Gettysburg ended today, July 3rd, Vicksburg fell today, July 3rd, and Abraham Lincoln instituted the Federal Income Tax BEFORE a constitutional amendment.

<blink>HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY</blink> See everybody on the 5th.

Funny that reminds me of my youth in Mississippi, a DRY STATE, but they would still post billboards at the river crossings into Arkansas and Louisiana that said, "Don't buy a fifth on the third for the fourth." Trying to keep us Southern boys sober.

And finally, what are the most dangerous words you can hear a Southerner say...



"Hey ya'll, hold my beer and watch this!"

my best, friends

I would like to add my own wishes for everyone to have a safe and enjoyable 4th. Have a good time and try not to get too much of anything (fun, sun, alcohol, etc.....) I've never been much for moderation myself, but I still think its probably a good idea. lol
