acidhead Posted July 4, 2014 #12 Share Posted July 4, 2014 “This week Americans will enjoy Independence Day with family cookouts and fireworks. Flags will be displayed in abundance. Sadly, however, what should be a celebration of the courage of those who risked so much to oppose tyranny will instead be turned into a celebration of government, not liberty. The mainstream media and opportunistic politicians have turned Independence Day into the opposite of what was intended,” --Ron Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JVG Posted July 5, 2014 #16 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Had a great day with family and friends. Relatives from Canada also took the the ride from Ottawa to join in the fun. Lots of food and plenty of refreshments. Fire works are always great and the party will continue today.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafterman Posted July 5, 2014 #17 Share Posted July 5, 2014 We celebrated with our annual ATF party. Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms. (but not in that order, the firearms came first - no drinking while shooting you know) It was a blast. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rashore Posted July 5, 2014 #19 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Been running the smoker for a couple days, chicken and steaks. Did a fab summer squash and snow pea saute, and made cooler corn. Drank a bunch of beer. Made wonderful fresh blueberry muffins with lemon strudel topping. Blew off a small heap of small sparkley fireworks in the driveway last night. A good time was had by all 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DieChecker Posted July 5, 2014 #20 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I noticed that there were a lot less of the 12 AM illegal mortars going off this year, waking up the kids and scaring the dog. Maybe the police were on top of things this year, rather then just letting everyone fire off mortars all night long? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most stopped at a decent hour but some others started up again around 1 am just to let us know that they were still around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wickian Posted July 6, 2014 #23 Share Posted July 6, 2014 ....and it's a shame you don't really care for soccer(sic), because you're actually pretty good at it.... Well the majority of our best athletes play more popular sports(locally popular at least). If soccer was as big here as it is in other countries I'm sure we'd have a better team than we do now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too knowledgeable about our team, but isn't it half of it imported players from other countries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
