What's everyone planning for the 4th?
Me, I'm doing the traditional things. Went out and picked up 4 16oz ribeye steaks and some mesquite wood chips for a little grillin' fun. Got good ol' Coors Original (none of that light beer for me!) and some...ahem...illegal...ahem fireworks to annoy my neighbors with. Looks like it will turn out to be a quiet and peaceful day!
Kidding aside, I am eternally thankful for the brave men and women who fought and died over 200 years ago to pay for the freedoms I enjoy.

God Bless America and her allies!
