I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding
generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be
commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of
devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with
pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells,
bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent
to the other, from this time forward forevermore.
-- John Adams, 1776

Great job Jim! FYI- Roger Sherman of Connecticut is the only person to have signed Bill Of Rights, The Articles Of Confederation, The Declaration Of Independence and The Constitution Of The United States.

It was Rush’s father who first gaved that speech.

I hope so too, because it has been overcast today. The only fireworks I have heard so far has been last night among the youths in the neighborhood.

May we all watch vigilantly over the Constitutional Republic we have been given by greater men and women than ourselves!
And may the rockets' red glare this day illuminate charcoal grills and American flags, not ashamed and not in mourning.
