    Yep.. I'm in no mood to celebrate our freedom from tyranny when a new tyrant is inside the house.

    My apologies for giving short shrift to America's Great National Treasure, WILLIE NELSON! Willie is 91 years young and, like Pearl Jam,
    had to cancel some recent concert dates due to illness. We younger generations can learn a lot from Willie's example. THANKS WILLIE!

    It's never too late to share a beautiful photograph - thank you for making the effort! I don't think I've ever seen a combination fireworks/drone show - where was this incredible display?

    Looks really cool! Nice picture! I bet the drones were awesome!

    Enjoyed the night out at our local city park and ran into multiple friends. Great fireworks display, and while the cover band was fine, they brought on a master fiddle player and did a killer The Devil Went Down to Georgia.

    The first time I heard about a drone show, I thought “how lame is that?” And then I saw footage of one and was blown away.

    The drone show at the Longhorns game I went to after the PJ Fort Worth show was killer.

    This is only true if we give it up and let the MAGA folks be the only ones to embrace the flag.  It is a perception, but that's all.  I still have a flag hanging at my house and this year re-registered as a republican just so I could vote not Trump in the primaries.  It was the only thing I could think to do.  I'm in California where you only vote for "your party" in the primaries.
