DID YOU
KNOW...
An avocado is a fruit, not a vegetable.
To tell if an avocado is really perfectly ripe, hold it in
the palm of your hand and gently squeeze. Hard as a rock?
Not ripe. Squishy? Overripe. Have as much give as chilled
butter? The avacado is perfectly ripe.

LAST MONTH'S CAPTIONS
Now
just wait a minute. Let me explain. So I
say to John Boehner, "I am not worried about the
deficit. It is big enough to take care of itself." If
your happy and you know it clap your hands! Before
the surgery, my ears used to be this big. Can
you believe I got elected not once... BUT TWICE?
QUOTE
OF THE MONTH
.
You have to love a nation that celebrates
its independence every July 4, not with a
parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file
by the White House in a show of strength and
muscle, but with family picnics where kids
throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy,
and the flies die from happiness. You may
think you have overeaten, but it is
patriotism. Erma Bombeck

FOURTH OF JULY LITTLE KNOWN FACTS
THE
"REAL" INDEPENDENCE DAY?
The Declaration of Independence was announced on July 4th, though the formal signing didn’t occur until August 2nd, and the colonies actually voted to accept it on July 2nd. So you may wonder – what day is the real Independence Day?
John Adams, who first proposed the idea of declaring independence from England, wrote a famous letter to his wife, Abigail, about how he believed July 2nd would be a day that was remembered and celebrated in America for years to come. Apparently everyone else remembered
otherwise.
OLD
GLORY
Did you know, that there have been 28 versions of the U.S flag to date, and that the most recent one, designed after Alaska and Hawaii joined the union, was the result of a school project? Robert Heft was 17 when he came up with the flag design in 1958. He originally got a B- on the project, but when his pattern won the national competition to become the next flag, his teacher raised his grade to an A.
