Two Hundred Ninety-First Entry

Bring it on Cheat-whore!

For those of you who have not been introduced...Homestar Runner! Favorites are Strong Bad emails and "Teen Girl Squad". Hilarious!, in a clean and quirky/dorky sort of way. And if you do browse Strong Bads emails or check out the "Teen Girl Squad", there are almost always hidden links in the last frame of the animation. Just move the mouse around until you see a hand.

I started a new tradition today. July 3rd fireworks! Tonight was the big (read: pathetic) Tulare County Fourth of July fireworks show. I got off of work at 9 and picked up Dalila, Georgia and Shaley to go see it. Well, just as we left the driveway, they began the "Grand Finale" (read: pathetic) and we didn't get to see any of it. So, upset that I missed the show (and with three whiney girls in the truck) I stopped and picked up some fireworks. $30 dollars worth. Ooohh. We sat ourselves down in Paula's driveway and lit up all the fireworks. It was fun. Georgia called it Independence Eve. It's a good name. We shall do it again next year in the name of the day before our nations founding fathers declared independence from the evil and tyrannical England. Followed by an airing of grievances and arm-wrestling contest.

Actually, following the fireworks, we went inside and ate ice cream and talked about Paula's service in the first gulf war. And about all sorts of events that shaped our nations history. Not a bad homage to our Founding Fathers.
