The forth is your independence day, So let me be the first tory to say it looks as if you colonials may make it without us. Its just a shame that the great british war hero Benedict Arnold isn't here to see this. Thinking on it I see you still use our language for now. You still pay a tea tax, you also like our rock bands. This is as close as you can get to a congratulation from me.

Re Britania:
Still.. It's a small shame.. We didn't carry over that "Sir" business.. Sir John Gilgood, Sir ? can't remember any others at the moment. I liked that bestowment business.. if only a title indicating "you did something noteworthy" in the past (and were recognized.)

I shall be tut-tut-tuttin' and fretting over guests who've lost all their cash in the casino.. Making Friends and Influencing People.. and keeping myself away from all sharp objects. Oh.. and sneaking out to watch the fireworks exploding across the lake.. Great view, that. 😉

I'd like to see fireworks, but I won't be able to get out to night 😢. I 'll just have to watch the new york city ones on tv. I got out of work early today, they closed because we weren't getting any business, so I went home and took a nice long math placement test for BU... I hate tangents... Actually, I just don't like the y variable, it's not as nice as the x or the z variable... *grumble grumble cosecant grumble 3 pi over 4 grumble grumble*

And well...that's all I have to say about that.

Thank god for good friends who helped me through it.
