HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMERICA. 240 years ago the folks who brought gunpowder and patriotic zeal to this land said "enough" and split with Britain via petition, the choicest weapon in the American arsenal. Now we celebrate their foresight yearly with plenty of colorful fireworks and nostalgia. Wherever you are and whatever you may be doing today: enjoy it. It’s a wonderful day. Float in a body of water. Drink something cold out of a can. Get a little crispy on the outside and listen to some damn good live music. Be sure to get home safely. In 61 days we play a pretty good UCLA team at Kyle Field.
Have a good one, all.
