"July 4th"<br /><br />This is a day when we know we are free<br />We can live as we want, yes you and me.<br /><br />But let us remember, that a price had been paid<br />Many who fought for us lay in an unknown grave...<br /><br />So let's stay safe and enjoy this day with friends,<br />Knowing that freedom, for us, has no ends.<br /><br />Smile at that flag as it hangs there with pride<br />We, who are free, never having to hide.<br /><br />Bring it in with a bang and yell and a shout<br />But remember to put all those camp fires out.<br /><br />Happy Birthday, America!<br />__________________________________________________<br /><br />"Instant Reaction"<br /><br />A father took his 5-year-old son to several<br />baseball games where The Star-Spangled<br />Banner was sung before the start of each<br />game.<br /><br />Then the father and son attended a church<br />on a Sunday shortly before Independence Day.<br /><br />The congregation sang The Star-Spangled<br />Banner, and after everyone sat down, the little<br />boy suddenly yelled out,<br /><br />"PLAY BALL!!!"<br />__________________________________________________<br /><br />Have a safe evening.
