Happy Independence Day!

     Sigh...yes, yes, I know, I repost this every year.  But, I think it's funny.  So, sue me.

"Okay, before we let people know we signed this thing, I'm thinking lunch.  Adams?"
"Roast beef and cheese."
"Got it.  Jefferson?"
"Turkey with dark meat."
"Heard that about you. Washington?"
"Calf Liver sandwich with eel.  With a shmear of horseradish."
"Eww, but okay. Franklin?"
"Fish and chips."
"Fish and chi...WTF?  Do you even know why we're???"

BTW, I prefer to say "Happy Independence Day," rather than "Happy 4th of July."  While I realize no one will confuse your wish for anything else, every country in the entire world has a "4th of July."  You may as well wish someone "Happy 16th of August."

"Got a card in the mail.  It said, 'Happy 4th of July.' 
Well, I was going to go with the 22nd, but...okay"
