They were also the only two men who signed the Declaration of Independence to go on to become President of The United States of America.

The Declaration of Independence was given final approval on July 4th, 1776, but it was not until August 2nd that most of the delegates actually signed it.

When I was a kid, of course Christmas would have probably been my favorite holiday. But as an adult, the 4th of July is number one in my book.

What a brave man John Hancock was. He was the first man to put his name on what was considered a treasonous document.

Back at you Noost. We did our part. I helped light off a truck load of the biggest WI had to offer at a party last night. Man that was fun!

Lets not forget what freedom is and all it entails this 4th of July. Have fun everybody!

Fourth of July is probably my favorite holiday. I love my country!

But today is also my birthday Growing up, I thought the parades and fireworks were all for me!

I've got a nice little stash that I'll be lighting off tonight. I've still got some from New Mexico that I bought back in '04.

I'm actually glad I'll be working all weekend...too many rude and idiotic out of towners flooding the area and drinking and driving...not my idea of a fun time.

Thanks for that. This one was great too. 10,500,000 firecrackers lit in WI in 2006. New World record. The heat generated turns into raging infernos. Amazing.

Tattle tail opps did I say that.....

Yep you did, and now I'm going to explain why this is bad.
In San Antonio it is very dry, we hardly ever get rain, and when we do it is a little amount, every year people light off fireworks, and there are fires, house fires, and people complain and go all I did was light off some simple fireworks, well it is illegal and they are fined.
Another thing, my dog gets seizures from bright lights, including lightning and every year he gets the seizures, and he is on medications for it, and one day without them, he gets seizures without the bright lights.
And just one more thing, one of my mom's coworker's nephew got 3 of his fingers blow off due to fireworks, because he didn't get out of the way soon enough, and now he is messed up, for life.
So I think you can see why I do not like fireworks.
This year I'm not going to call the cops though, my dad is a cop, and if they do, my dad is going out there himself.
