Rhapsodies

I hope everybody has a pleasant Fourth of July… I for one plan to get some work done this mourning, catch a showing of something around twoish, do some people watching at the various celebrations drop my bike off at the house and the catch the fireworks at Gasworks.

Just to get us all into the mood of the season. A little scene from one of my favorite historical musicals 1776; Now while I’m a huge fan of this play and I think it’s a great introduction to everything that was going on in the Continental Congress to the point if I taught American History in junior high school I’d make my class watch it.

Having said that I’m not the biggest fan of the soundtrack… with about one or two exceptions most of them are kind of goofy with this one, “The Egg” being the goofiest of them all… but in a fun way.

I have to say with Wild Turkeys making such a huge comeback back east (I saw three during my trip to Maine) I just might start agreeing with Franklin.

Enjoy and have a great holiday.
