Read a transcript of the Declaration of Indepedence at
The National Archives. And while you're there, spend a little time exploring the site...there's a ton of cool stuff there if you're at all interested in American history.
I'm off to a cookout! I'm trying my best to look forward to it, but I'm not fond of the idea of spending an entire afternoon in someone's backyard in 100+ degree temperatures. That's hot, folks. Maybe I'll offer to help out in the kitchen so I can take advantage of the air conditioner.
Have a safe and happy Fourth!
