Ranjan,
I thank you. It is a beautiful day here, and I will close the shop early, put on some shorts and flip-flops, and – later – Bar-B-Q some burgers. I will also think about History.. and the birth of a nation.
A loyal reader sent me this, which I will share:
“Our greatest happiness does not depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is always the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and freedom in all just pursuits.”
~ Thomas Jefferson
