You too John! I will be making my usual trip up north tomorrow, returning Tuesday. I take the acoustic and usually find a place to a jam.

On July 4, 1776, we claimed our independence from Britain and Democracy was born.


Happy Birthday, America!


“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

One of my most favorite holidays and a NKF band anniversary as well.
This will be our fourth fourth with a fifth. :lol:
Or as I should say our fourth year as a full five piece band.
Playing again this year on Lake Palestine for the good folks of the Lake Palestine UMC's
INDEPENDENCE DAY EXTRAVAGANZA.


God bless America.
God bless y'all.


Have fun, be safe.

A very special blessing and thanks to our veterans!

Happy 4th from an expat, expat. (Bit deep sorry). Enjoy your freedom :D
You know? There were democracies around before the rise of Emerica.
I was never allowed fireworks in NJ. Stiff, very tight laws there on just about everything, including air.
Still, I used the skills born in the woods of England to create a darn good catapult for those pesky roosters of "Hell Farm" :D
(Never to mame of course, I was a good shot!)
They still chortle at me, even here, even when passing in a car. Darndest thing....

Happy 4th to all, enjoy yourselves muchlee!

I have to pass on fireworks. Sound too much like Soviet mortars and bring back unpleasant memories. My wife says I look ridiculous when I keep ducking... probably right.

But I'll fly my Betsy Ross Flag!

Cheers

Enjoy. We may not have many left. By the way, America is a Republic not a Democracy, even though this regime is treating its people as if it is a democracy.

A Democracy pretty much looks like a dictatorship when full blown. You know, like they tell you what you can eat and not eat, what kind of cars you should be buying, what kinds of light bulbs you can use, if you can smoke in public parks and streets, how much money that you have worked hard for that you can keep, how fat you can get and still have any health care, if you can move your factory or not, if you have to let lawbreakers steal your jobs, that you have to support them even against the laws of the land, that the money they steal from you can be spent on things that are against your will or religion, that you have to be searched to take a plane, even if you are an 80 year old woman wearing depends in a wheelchair, what you can and can not do on your own property, that you have to move is some company wants your home destroyed so they can put in another parking lot, retail store or strip mall, and tons of other stuff like that.

Thank God we still live in a Republic where the citizens have a say in energy development, health care, what we can drive and so forth. :D

My 4th will consist of fishing at Miami county State fishing lake and on the way home I'll see numerous backyard fireworks displays. Awesome. Do it nearly every year. On the previous day we'll be winning the final Battle of the Bands.

The first line of what you said was what I was going to say. The rest of what you said I couldn't have said it better. Except to add that there are those that will impose evil as entertainment but don't want to be bothered with your diatribe. We the people are no longer predominantly "Under God". We still teach in schools theory of evolution, and after 150 years of not one atom of evidence to prove the theory it is still mainstream and a student can get a failing grade for not getting the rift. We the people are paying billions into NASA much like the building of the Tower of Babble. We the people have no say where our tax dollars are going. To be a great nation again we have to make it a great nation again. Happy 4th of July. God Bless our troops!

Dear Boss,

I have enjoyed working here these past several years. You have paid me very well, given me benefits beyond belief. I have 3-4 months off per year and a pension plan that will pay my salary till the day I die and a health plan that most people can only dream about.
I plan to take the next 12-18 months to find a new position. During this time I will show up for work when it is convenient. In addition, I fully expect to draw my full salary and all the other perks associated with my current job.

Oh yeah, if my search for this new job proves fruitless, I will be back with no loss in pay or status. Before you say anything, remember that you have no choice in the matter. I can and will do this.

Sincerely,

Every Senator or Congressman running for President.

Give me liberty or give me death.

I fear neither.
