1776 "When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
Founding Fathers, Thank you for wagering your EVERYTHING by writing and signing the document which articulated John's Locke's notion of what "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" and declaring the reasons for our Independence from an oppresive government! We modern day HAMBers get it, and we appreciate your assertive brave act of 1776. Happy 4th of July as we modern citizens celebrate our inalienable rights how we see fit. We will go vote in November to help fix our current mess, because we are still that "Shining city upon a hill" the rest of the world attempts to emulate
Hell Yea !!! Enjoy your Freedom that those men died for ! Also thank ALL the MEN & WOMEN that are someplace else in this world fighting and protecting us right now so we can still be FREE & SAFE right here at home today !

Amen Brother! Was Red Skelton ahead of his time or what? In this day and age when talk is cheap, we need reminders sometimes as to what Our Pledge really means. I just want to echo the previous thoughts of my fellow Hambers and say Happy Birthday America and may God Bless Us Everyone! I'm going for a quick cruise, if I may take the liberty to do so
Quiet day here, fire danger is high. Please send a thought or prayer out to the 4 Air Force crewmembers that gave their all this week fighting a local wildfire when their C130 went down on a slurry bomber run. On a happier note, doing up some pork country style ribs in the dutch oven. The 4th hit me a bit ago after a weekend on the road. Today I love my family and my country even more than ever. God Bless America!
Freedom isn't free!! God bless our troups, both past and present who's sacrifice and diligence, along with God's grace, has given us the greatest nation on earth. Happy Birthday America!!! Frank
