Just wanted to be the first to wish my American friends the very best of July 4ths ever.

From Brad at Bring the Heat:

Happy Birthday, America

Arthur's putting a whole Bah Humbug on my 4th.

238 years young. Looks like it's going to stop raining when it gets dark so it's not a total shut out, still get to do some fireworks.

Thank you PM2K!

Today is going to be another dose of 4-6 hours of hard labor (all I can muster at 52) - followed by some relaxation.

Here at Studio 588 today will be the third day of a shoot and, thus, a very full one. The plan calls for five shooting sessions but the day should be done by about 9PM. I will reveal details only when its over.

thanks! before tonight's cookout and fireworks, i'll have the TV on most of the day as I putter around the house... let's see what's on...

there's a Bulgarian, a Swiss and two Serbs trying to win the Wimbledon, before we get a Canadian woman vs. a German
then a team of Germans take on the French before Brazilians confront Colombians

and I say to myself... what a wonderful world!

Yes,Happy Fourth Of July guys! Have fun,be safe,don't burn your house down,and if you catch on fire remember,quicksand is partially water!

Happy Fourth to everyone....Let's celebrate with some patriotic pictures of a pair of All-American Beauties...


In her satin tights...fighting for our rights...and the old red, white and blue. Former Miss USA Lynda Carter.





And our own Brinke Stevens. (I actually have a picture of Brinke dressed as Wonder Woman, but it is in Black and White, so I thought that would ruin the red-white-and-blue motiff.)

Ah, the glorious Fourth! I'll be inside most of the day, as it is both hot and humid on the Colorado River here in Arizona. The heat is one thing. The humidity is definitely not something I'm used to. Looks like our annual monsoon season is on its way. I sure hope it breaks the drought we've had here in the West.

I'll be watching the fireworks from my back porch tonight. Unlike many animals, my cat isn't afraid of fireworks. He looks more annoyed than anything else when they go off. Now, the little kids from next door, those scare him.

I think I'll read my copy of the Declaration of Independence. It seems appropriate for July 4, and it will also remind me of where we Americans come from.

Happy Fourth of July everyone!
