Okay I was gonna come back with something you're comment made me bloody laugh, So I'll take that burn but will add that I'm going by what I know about the holiday (which isn't alot apparently lol) but like I said, I'm a Brit and we're anything other than honest and accepting people so I will take that burn and put some of my burn cream on it.

I'm not to sure about that. I mean I've seen some documentaries about the Declaration, as someone who enjoys how the British Empire "decided" that we didn't want the colonies anymore (use that term with love of course) and they talk about the 4th of July being the celebration of the signing but again I may have heard wrong or just not listened. But if I'm wrong, like I said in another comment, I will take the burn.

I did a little reading and we're both right and both wrong, so I will accept half the burn and buy you a beer of your choice.

I was right on the date of adoption. John Adams thought people would celebrate the date of the vote on the motion for independence, which was the 2nd. It wasn't signed until August.

Mea culpa, mea culpa.

Don't worry,
We will take
up the slack

It would be comforting
if you could Guarantee
the same.

Australia Day is my FAVORITE holiday, the 4th is a new holiday for me now, I think its a kinda similar day celebrating your nation.

I've given you a star for admission and if possible another for the mea culpa, haven't heard that in a long time. Being half right is better than me being completely wrong.

being half wrong and seeing it, is 10 times better than being half right.
And then I learned some history I didn't even know at all.
HA!
