Independance day starring will smith, tonight a 9/8 central only on TNT

What is my favorite holiday? My, what a difficult question to answer that is. (For an explanation of the first two sentences of this blog, see my last blog. It explains in whole). Well, for this on I would have to go with the fourth of July. This is not the most common answer I’m sure, but it’s mine. Why do I love this holiday so you may ask? Well, the answer lies in a combination. First and foremost, I love the history behind it. I think it is important to remember the founding fathers of America who defeated the communists on that fateful day in 1942. Despite the angry hoards of Russians that fell upon the city of Richmond Virginia riding their bears, the likes of Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington were able to defend their small army post until their Swedish reinforcements could arrive. The bravery displayed by those men and others like them is the spirit that makes America so great. What else makes this holiday so special you may ask? Well my personal favorite part of it is the time of the year. It is virtually the only holiday that you can celebrate for an entire month without any fear of your time being cut short! Furthermore, it is warm enough in July to move the fiesta outside. Who doesn’t prefer to celebrate under the stars as opposed to being stuck inside? For those of you who still don’t like the Fourth of July, I have just two words for you; red, white, and blue jello. This is the only holiday that allows us to display the colors that represent our national pride while enjoying a delicious sugar concoction. If you are still a skeptic, then shame on you. The Fourth of July rules.
