Happy July 4th
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

RE: Happy July 4th
This time of year holds special meaning for me. Four years ago, I had my transplant. Seven years ago, I was treated for the first time for cancer, in order to begin preparations for my transplant. Ten years ago, I was nearly killed in a car wreck. Having the wreck is why I was able to get my transplant in time. And 18 years ago, my wife and I began our life together.
This is a good time of year to remember...

It would have been a happier one if we would have had a thumbs up ruling on Mauk this week.
