It's the Fourth of July!

Today's date reminds me of the old joke:

Q:  "Do they have the fourth of July in Great Britain?"
A:  "Of course they do. It's just that it's not a holiday there."

Anyway, we celebrate the Fourth of July holiday here with flag-waving and fireworks, parades and barbecues, and beer and burgers.

And here on this blog, with variations on the achievement of arms of the United States of America.

Happy Fourth of July, everyone! Even if it's not a holiday for you.
