The Saturday Morning Post: The 4th of July


250 Years Ago Today a Fundamental Agreement was reached in a room full of anarchists to declare independence, and form a new country. A creative and bold move. A risky move to be certain. 

"We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately."
Benjamin Franklin 

Be bold in your creative endeavours. Think about what you need to say, and say it boldly. Take risks, do what is fundamentally right.

  2. In the panoply of time 250 years ain't much. Look how far America has come. What a shame it has been temporarily hijacked by a bunch of unkind, greedy low lifes led by a fake president.

    1. I made potato salad and gazpacho this morning, cool foods for a very hot day. I will make cheeseburgers this evening, reminds me of 4th of July on Lake Orion as a kid - Uncle Dick had a nice boat.
