Happy Birthday Greetings
Happy Birthday day to our great country, the United States of America. And happy birthday to Little Birdie. Like Little Birdie, I was born on a revolutionary holiday, I was born on the 200th anniversary of Bastille Day.

As a new tradition, I will try to post a "This day in history," here is the first one.
