Happy Weekend ... and Happy 4th of July to U.S.A.! :) xox
Some of the grievances in our Declaration of Independence:
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the Tenure of their Offices, and the Amount and Payment of their Salaries. He has erected a Multitude of new Offices, and sent hither Swarms of Officers to harrass our People, and eat out their Substance. He has kept among us, in Times of Peace, Standing Armies, without the consent of our Legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power. He has combined with others to subject us to a Jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution, and unacknowledged by our Laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: For quartering large Bodies of Armed Troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from Punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States: For cutting off our Trade with all Parts of the World: For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: For depriving us, in many Cases, of the Benefits of Trial by Jury.
Hi there my friend. Todays celebration is in honor of our military men & women. Without them we would not be where we are today. I want to thank you so so very much to those who fought for our freedom. THANK YOU!!!!

Happy Friday! I saw the latest Steven Spielberg movie "Disclosure Day" this morning. Though some critics say it's not one of his masterpieces, Roger Ebert gives it 4 stars, and I found it thrilling and fun -- a good few hours' escape. I enjoyed the John Williams score, too! (as well as the air-conditioning!) :) xox
