"forth "of July

[Donald Wilkinson]

Hey Badge: Can't think of a neater way to tweak our cousins than for any of us unreconstructed rebels (without cause?) to run a bunch of THEIR cars in a celebration of a war THEY lost.

The forth of July represents the birth of our country and our successful escape from the tyranny and oppression of Great Britain over our colony and the many who gave their lives to secure our independence. I like British cars too but on the forth of July, let's give it a break.

unreconstructed rebels (without cause?) to run a bunch of THEIR cars in a celebration of a war THEY lost...." It isn't a matter of "tweaking" anybody. To me, it simply seems very inappropriate and disrespectful to run a British car in a forth of July (or Independence day, if you prefer) Parade although I know that many do. 'Course there ain't no law against it so go ahead - but I won't.

Just think of the car as war reparations. Ken TC 4147 Just back from an Independence Day drive. BADGER wrote:
