Default Happy 4th of July to all our American friends

Lots of them on this board. Stay safe as things are quickly getting completely out of control down there COVID wise and well...politically.

Also I just watched a man eat 75 hot dogs in 12 minutes at the Nathans contest.

Insanity.

That was Joey Chessnut. He's the guy who ate 32 Big Mac's. He's my favorite eater now...by far.

Saturday in the park,
I think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park,
I think it was the Fourth of July

People dancing, people laughing
A man selling ice cream
Singing Italian songs
Everybody is another
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For Saturday

Thanks guys.

It’s an odd 4th to be sure. Beaches are closed. Palm Beach has a 10pm curfew. Most of the fireworks displays and events have been cancelled.

Wellington is having 2 fireworks displays, but the parks are closed to the public. You can watch them from your car (you can only be so many feet from your car) or a dining establishment as one of the displays is near Wellington Mall. I guess they figured what the heck.

I don’t think it’s appropriate to be celebrating the US today.

All countries matter.
