Merry Independence Day, fellow United Statesians!  From across the pond, I hear our British cousin Samuel Johnson asking us a question:

‘how is it that we hear the loudest YELPS for liberty among the drivers of negroes?’

Sounds like a fair question to me…

  1. My own question is: How is it that we hear the loudest fireworks among the most rabid rednecks?

    Seriously. I am stuck in the US. Pray for me… :I

    • For reasons that shouldn’t be too hard to figure out, I’m rather a duffer at this prayer stuff. I guess I could suggest

      Peccantem me quotidie, et non poenitentem, timor patriae conturbat me. Quia in rebus politicas nulla est redemptio, miserere mei.
