4th of July
What are you doing for the holiday.
I hated celebrated days. I will be working, double time and a half, yippee! For those who live in Chicago, no Taste for me. |
Dang, nobody answered my post! Well off to work I go!

I really don't celebrate Independence Day but I love fireworks, so I'll be heading to the city later to see the display.....unless the family at the end of street has there illegal fireworks festival-lol

Fourth of July
The weekend before, my family barbecued. A week later was my birthday, and I got my nails done and went to a carnival to celebrate. :) Ever since last year, I decided to celebrate my birthday for a week straight. :cool: The day after my birthday, I went with a friend of mine to a poetry reading. Late Friday night, I went with my cousin to Greekfest in Philly. I had a ball!!! :D The day I got back, I went to my neighbor's house and helped her celebrate her birthday. Since 1996, I celebrated my birthday at the NAACP's National Convention wherever it was held. I didn't attend the last two conventions because I didn't have the money.

Whether I road trip or stay home, I will be up under somebody's barbeque....for real. :cool:

What better way to celebrate this country than by blowing up a small part of it?
My family will be having it's enormous cookout on Sunday since so many folks plan stuff for the 4th. We got fireworks y'all!:o :D |
4th of July
Well, since up brought it up:
HAPPY FORTH OF JULY American Spirit By Bill Fries (AKA C. W. [Convoy] McCall) How ‘bout them fireworks? Pretty cool huh? Ever wonder why we shoot. Them off on the Fourth? It’s because we are celebrating our Freedom. It’s because we are Americans. And it’s our birthday! The first three words of the Constitution: We the People… We the people and celebratin’ our independence We are The Declaration of Independence And the Star Spangle Banner up there in the sky. We are the Rocket’s Red Glare, the Bombs Burstin in Air. We are The Fourth of July! We are The Pledge of Alliance we say to our Flag The Stars and Strips Forever! We are the Republic for which it stands. The United States of America. Remember? We are that One Nation, under God, Indivisible with Liberty and Justice for All And because we all live in the Land of the Free We don’t have to say it at all Unless we want to. You wanta be counted? Then stand up and shout it! Make sure the whole world gets to hear it! You wanta talk freedom? We know all about it! We are the American Spirit! Taken from American Spirit By Mannheim Steamroller and C. W. McCall The following words were spoken by the late Red Skelton on his television program as he related the story of his teacher, Mr. Laswell, who felt his students had come to think of the Pledge of Allegiance as merely something to recite in class each day. Enjoy your Weekend-Keep it safe and sane. And remember what it is all about.
