Independence Day

Did you know that Independence Day does not fall on July 4th? That's right! On July 4th the Declaration of Independenc was signed. BUT, and this is a big BUT, declaring independence does not make it so!

So, let's get out facts straight:

1. The Continental Congress declared that the independent United States of America was no longer a part of Great Britain. OK, so where is the Continental Congress now? Huh? Don't konw, do ya.

2. There were no fireworks on July 4, 1776!

3. There were no barbecues!

4. Most damning, July 4, 1776 was NOT a holiday.

Now what do you say to all that?

There are three kinds of people: those who can count, and those who can't.
