To quote Robin Williams:: "And then there's the Puritans. A group so fucked up and boring, even the English said, 'Get out.'"

I take it you don't like the fact that France helped? Seems to me you would rather the redcoats won.

Yorktown, spelled phoenetically. The battle where Washington forced the British onto a beach between a bunch of colonials and the French Navy and ended the war. (Which, coincidentally, did not take place on July 4; I don't remember the exact date.)

So much blessing of prosperity and safety this weekend to all. I will, again be watching the fireworks from the relative comfort of a gun tower this evening.

Hey, at least you're in a fortified position, if my neighbors decide to try to blow up a small portion of this country, I don't even have a proper basement to take shelter in.

Oh, but yeah, happy Independence Day everyone, hope no alien space lasers blow up your favorite monuments.

When playing with fireworks tonight. Remember safety first.

In unincorporated Fox Lake, Illinois, 28-year-old Daniel Wyman drowned after he and a companion inadvertently blew a hole in the bottom of their boat with an M-250 firecracker. The M-250 firecracker is the equivalent of one-fourth of a stick of dynamite. Daniel Wyman and his friend threw the firecracker into the water near their 14-foot aluminum rowboat. The boat was caught by a gust of wind that pushed the boat over the explosive. The boat was not equipped with life preservers; Wyman, who could not swim, drowned when the boat sank. His companion swam to shore and was taken to Northern Illinois Medical Center in McHenry for observation.

Fox Lake Fire Capt. Thomas Preidis said that the device probably had floated back to the surface when it exploded; otherwise the cushion of water between the explosive and the boat probably would have prevented a breach of the hull.

"We really don't know why it happened," Preidis said. "It's getting close to the 4th of July, and people like to blow off fireworks. When you throw an M-250 in the water it makes a nice big geyser. Then again, they may have been trying to scare fish to the surface."
