Happy Independence Day, Amerika!

Despite the fact that I was born in a foreign country, I still love to celebrate the 4th of July, mainly because I love barbeque, blowing things up, and the Constitution.

Since this year I celebrate the 4th as a naturalized, rather than native-born citizen, I’ll be honoring my country by drinking the beer of my homeland, rather than some other watered-down American beer.

Happy birthday, America! I’m sure that Thomas Jefferson would be very proud of the way you’ve turned out.

Vermont has the very best state-themed quarter.  It’s a lonely figure gathering syrup, I think.  Either that or it could be a drummer in the colonial army hanging drums on various trees.  But it looks so sad.  It really captures what it means to be alive.  You are sad, but you are always in the mood for some syrup.  Thank you Vermont.  Thanks for not putting your state bird on your quarter.Â
