The Town of Odyssey

Happy birthday to America!

I hope everybody celebrated with a little fireworks. Everybody needs fireworks on the 4th of July!

I hope y'all enjoyed a well-lighted Fourth of July! (Which is not better than Canada Day, for those confused by the attempt at humour in Whitty Whit's thread subtitle.)

We celebrated by watching Independence Day. Always a classic in our house

I can't believe it's been 2014 years since God signed the Declaration of Independence!! God bless America!!!

Correction, 6014 years approx. Still, Happy 4th everyone!

Why does it give me such joy to see Catspaw use the word "y'all?"

Because you're an awesome person, obviously! That was a special touch in honour of such a special American holiday.

Well, Yee-haw to that!

My economics instructor was British and he once said, in jest of course, “You know we celebrate July 4th too. It’s the day we got rid of you lot.”
