I'm pretty disgruntled over the fact that we've been screwed out of some major freebie vacation days in the past year. First with Christmas falling on a weekend, followed by New Year's, and now with July 4th on a Wednesday. Corporate America, you're really only giving us one day off work in the name of our forefathers? I'm pretty sure Thomas Jefferson would not approve. I'm also pretty sure he fathered a number of bi-racial children, and as an ethnically ambiguous chick myself, I must say I admire a man with exotic taste.
Whether you're cramming in all Independence Day festivities on Wednesday or waiting until the weekend to begin the real celebraish, you can guarantee that in the next five days, nearly every 84% of all families in America will at some point barbeque by a body of water. In Oklahoma, the choice body of water, of course, is Grand Lake.
