I think Americans and Canadians should join together. July 1st is Canada Day, and July 4th is Independence Day, so I think that July 2nd and 3rd should be North America Day(s). Just so we have more excuses to buy fireworks and drink beer and barbecue instead of going to work 👍

I always thought the 2 countries shoul interchange.
Spent the day at my dads annual company picnic at my local amusement park (most coasters on the east coast of America and I live 6 miles from it!). Only downfall was it was 105 out, and got 2nd degree sunburn. OUCH

Since it is illegal for it to rain on July 4th, the severe thunderstorms scheduled to hit our area have held off for now. 
'Twas an excellent 4th. Watched the local parade, grilled, and watched three fireworks shows (on TV). There was an awesome shot in the New York show where you could see three separate fireworks shows (with the show the program focused on in the foreground and two others in the distance, one on the left and one on the right) in a single frame.

My daughter and cousin:
Awesome pics, dude! Thanks for sharing!
And how cute those two are! Reminds me of this pic of my nieces...
It was a GREAT day and night. We enjoyed hamburgers and hot dogs, deviled eggs and deviled egg potato salad, baked beans and four bean salad with a wide selection of sodas including my favorite orange cream soda.
I watched the local fireworks display while smoking a Henry Clay. After it was over I had a long chat with locals while under the moonlight. It was a blast! Until the cops ordered us to leave. Apparently, we were "loitering" on private property. Cops, man.
Hope you guys had as much fun as we did!

Woo! A day that, despite my dual citizenship, I am openly belittled by people in this city. I know I'm sort of "The enemy", but that REALLY wasn't me. I didnt barge into Lexington and Concord and open fire. Neither did any of my family.
Comebacks I had to use today:
-Have you ever played cricket? Yeah, it's fun. Get on my level.
-I actually dont even like Fish and Chips so.....
-Oh come off it, you drink Tea all the time
-I've actually lived here most of my life, so I'm not even "That" British
-Yes, you beat us in a war, where you had the homefield advantage AND didnt fight like gentlemen
-Lance Armstrong? Oh please. Mark Cavendish, obviously.
About 95% was in fun. But when the drunk rednecks overhear you and your mates, you end up with the bad 5%.
Still enjoyed the fireworks.
And I still respect those who stand up and fight for what they believe in, those who fight for fairness and equality.
And I still enjoyed a night out with my mates.

^Can you just fly out and own them all at once with me? haha
I also used
"Yeah, but what Stage Productions(Referring to Shakespeare), and hell, LANGUAGE are you made to learn about in school? Yeah. Thats whats up."
But seriously. I have no issues with the 4th of July. Except the stark generalizations.

... I've never had the pleasure of being in the West country.
US? YOU? I think what you mean to say is that the British half that were fighting the other half of British soldiers were called back because there was no purpose fighting our own side.
No matter how many American friends I have they still get edgy about this. Many of them are Italian, Irish, African, Hispanic Americans who celebrate, who weren't even 'American' for the whole shabang!
Now I know you're wrong.
Armstrong is, without doubt, one of the greatest riders to have ever lived. Not just in the present, but throughout history!

Great 4th! Family, food, and friends. Only problem now is I went to start up GT5 and my Internet is down. Bummer. It never fails when I have time to play something always gets in the way. It's my problem though, I use my neighbor's wifi and apparently he needs to pay his bill.
