Okay, so I knowingly skipped Canada Day on July 1st, but you know what? USA #1! How dare you canuckleheads think you can upstage us in July, on OUR month of Independence. The nerve of it all. The humanity. This continent ain’t called North AMERICA for nothing, you know (not to mention the fact that North Canada would sound absolutely redundant). I am, of course, just yanking your tundra-covered chain, because I know full well there is a Central and South America, too, and that this correlation has nothing whatsoever to do with the price of tea in China. But if you look the whole world over virtually every country celebrates some form of independence with fireworks. Because what’s more fun than watching things go boom and shit? Nothing, that’s what, although my memories of Fourth of July are forever entwined with the opening title sequence of an old television show from the ’70s called Love, American Style—I know, it sounds like an early version of HBO’s Real Sex atrocity, but it was much more of a comedic soap opera. Incidentally, Real Sex is the only time I have vocally yelled at a television screen in the privacy of my own home. Humans really can suck at times and I don’t mean that in a oral manner.
