Have fun but be safe this weekend with those fireworks! In fact, why don't you have fun creating your own Virtual Fireworks
my oh my !! Looks to me like we need a History lesson here: On July 4, 1776, we claimed our independence from England. http://www.usacitylink.com/usa/ Be sure to try that Fireworks Game .... its truly addicting!!!!
My cute lil' smilie does say "4th of July" hahaha... "Independance Day" and "Men in Black" meet ... I get it now!
Shouldn't your smilie have retreated 5 metres after lighting that rocket? Have lots of fun on Sunday. Have you got anything planned?
I know it is a couple of days early but - HAPPY BIRTHDAY U.S.A. Have a great Independence Day and thanks for being great neighbours!
If you're celebrating July 4 in the New England area, serve salmon and peas, and help keep an old tradition alive! http://www.boston.com/ae/food/articles/2004/06/30/salmon_and_peas_a_tradition_to_keep/ If you want to go a little fancier, google up a recipe for "Salmon and Peas in Dill Sauce", or "Creamed Salmon and Peas", or "Bowtie Pasta with Smoked Salmon and Peas".
I get to go to an autoracing event at a local Air Force base. In the same place, I get to see an air show, after that, FIREWORKS!!!
Slightly of different... and off topic.. When was the Federation of Australia, KC? When was the Australian government formed? When did Australia become a Nation?? No "Googleing". Don't know? My oh my !! Do we need a History lesson here? Don't be surpised Australians are not absolulty swilling with pride for America this weekend. Don't be suprised if they don't know this weekend is special for you guys. Don't "My Oh My !!" us. We don't live there. We are not Americans. We are not supposed to know... it's not our country. No offence, but the rest of the world doesnt really need a history lesson on your country. And like I said, don't be suprised if they don't know. My oh my! Happy Birthday Yankyland, and have a good weekend! .
Australia became a nation after they defeated the Mutant Marsupial Alien Overlords of Triton 5 in 1873 by using kerosene soaked koalas as catapult ammo. Come on, everybody knows that
Actually Greg, technically people nowadays are supposed to know about the Fourth of July. It's in almost every primary/lower secondary school curriculum, to my knowledge. Not to mention the countless references to 4/7 (or 7/4) on TV, in the movies etc..I understand what you're saying, and in fact I agree that we don't need the history lesson, because we're already supposed to know ^_^. But meh, never really cared for US holidays, but still, happy Independance Day.
