Fourth of July

The name Van T. Barfoot may not sound familiar to you, but his story is a good one that needs to be told.

The legend of America’s birth is only 236 years old. However, in that short amount of time, a number of legends that would normally take centuries to grow and multiply in any other civilization have sprung up.

I am here wishing you and your family a happy Fourth of July! Independence Day is statistically the most dangerous U.S. holiday, with the highest report of injuries out of all the major holidays. I know, I know, I'm shocked too that it isn't St. Patty's day with all that green beer and those crazy leprechauns...but apparently that's not the case. So please, BE SAFE, and have fun!

American cities are the most patriotic in the world, we hoist the stars and stripes in places like New Freedom PA, American Fork UT, and Eagle Pass TX

China owns the Fourth, too.

We’ve been busy since that First Fourth

Forget about the dawn’s early light, this Fourth of July is all about the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air and maybe even a couple of spiders. Those are the ones that, well, look kind of like a spider, anyway. Here are 10 great fireworks displays throughout the country. If your city didn’t make it, don’t worry — we’re sure it’s just as good.
