ON A TYPICAL 4TH OF JULY
"Southern American" celebrations might go something like this :
...HEY -BILLY JOE BOB...
|
|
|
|
NOW FIRE IT ON UP ! ("on" - often pronounced "own")
|
|
|
|
And, of course, we include some of Grandmama's finest 'fine-ry' too : ("My dear - your smile and your bosom may be fake, but your silver must be real!") (George III Silver Toasting Fork / Pair Silver 18th Century Neoclassical Tapersticks Good Set of Four William IV Silver Knife Rests - the other two shown below)
|
|
|
|
AND ICE THAT STUFF ON DOWN ! (Don't forget to say "on" just right)
|
|
|
|
William IV Silver Neck-Ring Bottle Ticket / Good Set of 4 William IV Silver Knife Rests Pair Silver 18th Century Neoclassical Tapersticks / Rare Pair of Silver-Gilt Ice Cream Shovels) That RC's company was born in 1905 - right down in Georgia. My daddy knew 'his people'.

All the preparations and celebration are naturally accompanied by a patriotic tune, - - or two : You can sing along if you want ...
....Oh-h-h, say can you "Tweet", Re : the meat and the sweets May they
e'er
be "Flag"
eats ....
From the
mountains to the prairies
To the oceans white with foam
God bless
America
(and bless your heart too) ....
Away - away
down South in Dixie ....
And may YOUR 4TH be sunny and pleasant as
well !
Bye now...call me....ya'll be careful, you hear...

P.S. Setting those sparklers off resulted in setting
the firecrackers off, which resulted
in the smoke detectors going off - which brought
the Memphis fire department over for a short visit. We all had a
fine time - took some pictures too! |
