The Weekend Thread - 4th of July Edition

You'll also need a styrofoam deer with gunshot marks and/or arrow notches in its sides. And a big dog on a heavy chain doesn't hurt. :-D

 

Working at Fireworks booth 5 - close in 100+ degree heat.

Sales are very slow this year.......

 

One last day of partying and the tourists can take their subwoofers home!:mad All they play is some sort of heavy beat crap, not sure what it is but it goes on and on and on... Luckily I have speakers too.http://bestsmileys.com/music1/3.gif

 

Aww man, you're mean. I love it!:-D Too bad cobras don't do well up here during the winter.

 

This weekend I'm planning t?

Ahh crap...

 

...buy from ACME again?:-D

 

ACME has some pretty cool stuff! And they always have stuff delivered before the next scene.

Ever tried getting an exploding cannon ball shipped via ebay:confused :-D

 

As long as you don't light your butt on fire first!:-D

 

Well, no more vodka for me tonight. Have a great night folks! See ya'll in the daylight, if ya can take it.:-D I'm out.:zzz

 

Happy Independence Day! I ran across this quote on another site. I like it.

"...In a state of tranquillity, wealth, and luxury, our descendants would forget the arts of war and the noble activity and zeal which made their ancestors invincible. Every art of corruption would be employed to loosen the bond of union which renders our resistance formidable. When the spirit of liberty, which now animates our hearts and gives success to our arms, is extinct, our numbers will accelerate our ruin and render us easier victims to tyranny. Ye abandoned minions of an infatuated ministry, if peradventure any should yet remain among us, remember that a Warren and Montgomery are numbered among the dead. Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say, What should be the reward of such sacrifices? Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship, and plow, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth? If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom--go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!

Samuel Adams - August 1, 1776"

:cool

 

Samuel sounds like a Democrat. :-D Happy 4th to all you yanks.

 

Perhaps he does. How the parties change... :-D


I don't think he was a democrat.
"May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!"

 

Does it really matter on which side he was? I prefer common sense.

 

Well everything went almost as planned.

Saturday went to Canton, TX for trade days. Hotter than hell.

Yesterday, grilled outside but no fireworks.

The hardest thing about the long weekend was to not start some home improvement projects with all the free time. But I made myself not do it and spend time with the family.

 

Made some bacon/cheese dogs yesterday, I hope my arteries can take the strain!:yum :-D
