Like a lot of Americans, I plan to celebrate this country's Independence Day by taking a short road trip and then sitting on my butt for the next three days, preferably near an ice chest. But while thinking about a life of luxury and all the Gulf shrimp I can handle, I also thought about the importance of this day.
The Fourth of July is more than fireworks and hot dogs — it's the founding of one of the greatest countries in modern history, a nation with a reputation as a source of endless opportunity. More than a seat of government, the United States serves as an ideal and it's hard not to think in terms of the icons that proudly proclaim, "This is America."
Y'know ... like a mythical Mexican wrestler fighting a pack of chupacabras in a Costa Rican cave.
Brings a patriotic tear to your eye, doesn't it? Viva America!
If you really want to see fireworks, trying messing with Bahlactus.

Dude, the fight's postponed. Come back next week.
Well, hell. That's what I get for running off for the holiday weekend.
Er ... I'm gonna go ahead and call this an exhibition round ...
