LOL When I was stationed in England, the base would have a big 4th of July shin dig, complete with fireworks. All the locls came out for the festivities. I asked somw of my British friends if they knew what the party was all about, none of them did, they were just enjoying the festivities.
They didn't appreiciate it so much when I told them what it was they were celibrating...
Happy and safe 4th everyone!

We had some Royal Navy officers celebrate the 4th with us in San Diego in the early 80's. They were very good sports about the whole thing. Although there were a few cool looks when the whole crowd sang along to "The Battle of New Orleans." 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
