Happy Fourth, All!

Though I remain unconvinced that the Revolution was actually justified in principle, the proof, as it were, is in the pudding, and even a skeptic such as I has to admit that the whole independence thing has worked out pretty well for the country.

So: here's to you, America. You don't look a day over 210!

And now, to celebrate the birth of my country, I'm going to go watch a small Japanese man cram dozens upon dozens of wieners into his maw.

UPDATE: Suitably patriotic music added:
