4TH OF JULY

The 4th of July is a favorite holiday of many Americans. It is a day of picnics, hot dogs, parades, baseball, fireworks, and lots of red, white, and blue. Of course, although many Americans dutifully and happily celebrate the 4th of July, not all of them understand exactly what it means.

The 4th of July is also known as Independence Day in the United States. Independence from whom? The Kingdom of Great Britain. When? 1776.

Many people assume that the 4th of July was the day that we won the American Revolution and officially gained our independence from Great Britain, but this is not true. The formal ending of the American Revolutionary War was on September 3, 1783. This is the day that the Treaty of Paris was signed, officially ending the war, on paper.

Some people also mistakenly believe that our 4th of July celebrations mark the day that the American Revolution started, but the war started in 1775, and the 4th of July marks and event that happened in 1776!

Ok, I'm getting ready to get off work. I just found out that the 4th of July parade starts at 10am and its on the main road. The problem is, I live on the main road. Should I just wait until the parade is over (its a hour and a half long) or should I be an asshole and drive right through it to get to my house?

I know that different cities have different budgets for that sort of thing, but how much does the average fireworks show cost?

The United States is 231 years old. It was the first nation in the Western Hemisphere to become independent, and inspired revolutions throughout the Americas. Many American countries that are not part of the United States observe the Fourth of July as a truly American holiday.

What will you do to keep the Revolution alive today and in the days to come?

I know that the proper way to rid an American Flag is to burn it, but here I'd like to know about the smaller replicas that are staked along highways and the even smaller ones waved by millions of people. Thanks for your responses.

I always love the 4th of July because of the fireworks, and the cook-outs. This hasn't crossed my mind at all until now- What the heck are we celebrating? i know it's about America, but is it the day America was discovered or something? I have no clue. Please answer!!!

When it comes to 4th of July, a lot of people on my block blow off fireworks. The loud boom/noice really scares me. I close all the windows and try to go to the room where you can't hear them, but I still hear the BOOM!!! They remind me of bombs and of course those scare me. I am scared that they will catch something on fire!Any advice on how I can get over my fear? Or how to not hear the fireworks/firecrackers?
