Happy July 4th!

I just realized that now is the actual factual Independence Day!

Some famous things that have happened on July 4th:

• America declared independence (thus the name!)--1776
• Our founding fathers, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams died--1826
• The surrender of Vicksburg--1863
• The Pathfinder landed on Mars--1997

Here's a tip: don't make your last words, "Jefferson still survives" because chances are that the guy had died a few hours before.
