Happy Independence Day

I woke up today with a great sense of relief. I realized if America had lost her revolution, I would be British, a horror too terrible to even contemplate. If we had lost the war for independence, we would be forced to watch the New England Redcoats thrashing our pro football teams. If we had lost the war against the king, I likely would never have seen a dentist. If we had not chased away those lobster backs, what is now Washington DC might still be a swamp- oh never mind!
