Happy 4th! Go pursue happiness!

What do you do when it's the Fourth of July and you have a blog but don't have anything to say?

Say "HAPPY 4TH!" I guess.

And supply some completely useless but entertaining trivia, in the form of fun facts I want to be true!

Did you know that....

The Taft's owned the last presidential cow and the first White House automobile.
and
Truman's mother, a Confederate sympathizer, refused to sleep in Lincoln's bed during a White House visit.
Betcha didn't know! I found those facts so entertaining that contrary to my usual practice I won't even bother to verify them.

Imagine. Linking unverified facts just because I want them to be true! On the Fourth of July, no less! (I really must be slipping....)

And in the interest of today's festivities, here's Coco's favorite patriotic pit bull poster:

MORE: Via a helpful email, a perfect 4th of July video -- John Stossel's What's Great About America.

Worth watching in its entirety.

People on the left ought to think twice about what their policies will ultimately destroy, before it's too late.

Patriotic bunny poster.

Don't build a bunny nest in a Doberman's yard. She finds them all every day.

Love that pic! Nice dog.

Your bunnies are exactly the same size as the ones around here right now. No bunny would be insane enough to build a nest in Coco's yard though. Too small and fenced in with no escape. That does not stop the squirrels from tormenting her, because they can climb trees and scurry away on top of the fences.

Backup flickr link to bunny pic.

My google account self-disappeared this morning, which instantly deleted my blog and pic linked to above.

Anything you have under google can disappear in an instant.
