It’s the Fourth of July once more. It is time again to celebrate the uniting thirteen colonies against their sovereign across the ocean.

We want you all to close the evening with family and friends, and not in the emergency room counting your fingers. Or limbs, for that matter. Be safe. And have a happy Fourth of July, everyone!
