Happy 4th of July!!


"It behooves you, therefore, to think and act for yourself and your people. The great principles of right and wrong are legible to every reader; to pursue them requires not the aid of many counselors. The whole art of government consists in the art of being honest. Only aim to do your duty, and mankind will give you credit where you fail." Thomas Jefferson, preparing the Declaration of Independence.


"All men are created equal and have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Thomas Jefferson, In the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776

I love your background. July 4th rocks! I don't think I have ever uttered "rocks" about anything IRL. I am turning into to someone else via blogging. :)
