The Most Important Independence Day Tradition

"Fireworks!"

"Barbecue garden burgers!"

"Beer!"

Ummm, no.

The reason for this particular season is The Declaration of Independence, people. A beautiful piece of poetry, this document deserves to be read *out loud* at least once a year (the very least) to your children, loved ones - hell, even to yourself.

Don't take Christ out of Christmas. And don't take The Declaration of Independence out of Independence Day.

The beer and barbecue will wait. Feed your mind and soul first.

Enjoy!
