Happy Birthday to U.S.

[Clanad]

Just let me say Happy Birthday on July 4th to we here in the U.S.!
In all seriousness, many of us still thank the "Motherland" for the gift of English language, law, hardwork and dedication that has seen our country through 232 years of good times and bad. We still appreciate the "special relationship", taking nothing away from the subsequent waves of Irish, Italians and others, I think we will always be a little bit of the transplanted "Green and Pleasant Isle"...

4th July was also Happy Birthday Louis Armstrong! I wish he was still here to celebrate it!

if I'd known about the Rocky Mountain Oysters, Clanad, I believe I might not have asked the question....
