St. Patricks Day

@Canuck12:

As offensive as the costume may be, it’s actually pretty clever. And well done…

Offensive LOL?  Really? ;)

I hope every would-be suicide bomber, or family member of one of these clowns is deeply offended.  Better file a human rights complaint!

lol

Considering I plan to live forever (or die trying!) I will see the sun go supernova!

I hope this often considered too political…

I would just like to pay my respects to the fallen - those who gave their lives for or freedoms and or nations ( although I am biased,i think it’s good that America is still around too). I also want to acknowledge our veterans living with the scars from their Service (Caps intended).  Thank you isn’t enough but I’m afraid it will have to do.

An idea for a great game for kids this season is called Angry Birds-Knock on Wood. A freedom to explore ideas is really a type of nurturing for them to reach their full potential. Christmas season is fast approaching.

@Janus:

isnt it interesting, that in america we celebrate the 4th of july as our independence day, when the actual declaration was signed on the 2nd of august?

The signing of the document was really the anticlimax. It was adopted by congress on July 4th 1776.

They started to sign it on August 2nd but the signing wasn’t compeated until much later, monthes later, if I remember right.

Yeah, I was going to say that too. That was pretty devestating to the Army of Northern Virginia. Over 60 percent causalities… I can’t think of anything worst than that.
