Default Independance Day

I know it was briefly mentioned in the Birthday thread, but I want to wish our Southern neighbours a happy Independence Day.

Oddly I didn't do much for Canada day, but I'm going to a party tonight. Don't know if that counts as an Independence Day party or not. :P

Technically I'm American, the United States just hijacked the name of the continent.

Anyways we're not celebrating Independence day, we're just having a Saturday night BBQ on July 4th. Though once I did go to an Independence day party, but that was because someone's girlfriend was from the United States.

I'm american, therefore I use our spelling of it, which does not include the u. (sorry about the u bold/under, saw the our as the word and couldnt resist, otherwise I would've phrased that a bit differently :P)

Why not throw your own party? XD

Personally, I have a problem with July 4th. I love the idea and the freedom and the, well, independence that came with the first Independence Day, but not what it has become.

It could be argued that this has happened with just about every holiday. But whatever?
