contemplations
Enjoyed watching 1776 on Independence Day Night. The sequence where Martha Jefferson visits Thomas in Philadelphia (fictional) hits me as poignant, as a historian I am aware that in just over 6 years she would be dead of complications of childbirth. The stress of fleeing the British during the Revolution didn’t help. One of her infants would die during this time.
On top of strict gun control laws, Massachusetts has banned fireworks even for Independence Day. One wonders why that state doesn’t petition to be allowed to leave the Union and return to British rule.Albert Perez

TLE readers will appreciate some of the lines in 1776. E.g.:
A second flood, a simple famine, plagues of locusts everywhere,
or a cataclysmic earthquake, I’d accept with some despair.
But no, You sent us Congress! Good God, Sir, was that fair?
Search it out if you haven’t seen it. Or even if you have. — Editor
Was that worth reading?
Then why not:
Happy with this piece? Annoyed? Disagree? Speak your peace.
