    Default Happy Independence Day!

    "Celebrate the birth of your country by blowing up a small portion of it."

    Of course, technically, fireworks are illegal in my state.;)
    I see no reason why explosives should not be allowed in the hands of the general public.

    Happy 4th Everyone! :)

    Stay safe!

    You should be good because in hell there is only customer service positions to be filled, and in heaven, you get to make the calls.

    Do you work at a bank? My brother has shifts like that, or when I used to work for Disneyworld, sometimes the shifts were horrible.

    You're a security guard? I know some guards at a couple of colleges. They have the best stories about the comming and goings of people. ;)

    Being in security is the best thing for me right now, because it allows me to do homework and prepare for law school while getting paid for it. I don't see the comings and goings of anyone though because I work at night.

    What is this school you speak of? Everything I learned about history I learned from Highlander the TV Series. In watching the show I have also the learned that while England, and America can boast independence days unlike your people that has en entire history of getting pwned.:p


    Moving on there is an interesting duality about The Revolution war that has always fascinated me. America won that war by using gorilla tactics against the English who were fighting a conventional mindset of thinking in terms of two front lines going at it, and the country with the least amount of casualties and most amount of land wins the war. The irony thus becomes apparent because America has been unable to win wars against countries using guerrilla tactics because they are fighting using the logic of the enemies that they beat with gorilla warfare. Fascinating that.
