When the sheriff shows up in the middle of the neighbor’s firework show & says to shut the show down due to no permit and if they come back it’s a $650 fine. Your neighborhood pow-wows & agrees to split the fine & chance it. 😬 So, they let off the rest of the fireworks as fast as possible & hope the sheriff doesn’t come back. 😬😬😬
This version of The Star Spangled Banner is dedicated to the 322 men and women who will learn this weekend that they received a work ethic scholarship from MRW. A total of $3 million is being awarded this quarter. Details to follow, later today. In the meantime, please join me and a few of our past recipients in a gentle reminder that our national anthem can - and should - be sung in under a minute. And feel free to sing along!
Happy 250th birthday, America! We got you a present. 🇺🇸
The red, white, and blue stars of this globular cluster shine like a sparkler waved on a dark night in this image from @NASAHubble, released in celebration of the United States' 250th anniversary.
Balogun was in on goal. He beat the defender and was about to score.
No red card. No penalty. No yellow card. No foul. No review.
The bizarre thing is that Fox Sports showed a replay that began just AFTER the defender let go of the arm. So weird. How could the officials miss this? And how could the TV crew miss it as well? @USMNT
Skip Schumaker on Evan Carter's struggles at the plate:
"It's gonna click. He's an extremely talented, dynamic player. ... This game is hard. Our job is to help him adjust to the game when it adjusts to you. I feel really good about where he's gonna be by the end of the year.
One thing you don’t realize is how banked these turns are at Talladega. Video really doesn’t do it justice, feels like you are going to roll over. @jackassworld
.@SECWAR just met World War II veterans at the Normandy American Cemetery Ceremony.
Their courage and sacrifice helped save the world—America will forever owe them a debt of gratitude.
Thank you to all who fought and sacrificed in freedoms defense all those years ago. Incredible footage here. Blessed that both my uncles survived and will never forget the over 400,000 who did not come home.
Out of 16.4 million Americans who served in WWII, only about 40,000 are still alive.
They’re dying at a rate of ~100 per day.
These are the heroes who saved the world from tyranny.
Find one. Thank one. Listen to their stories.
While you still can.
Eighty-two years ago today, freedom stood on the edge of extinction, and Allied forces stormed into hell to help save the world.
We will never forget the courage, the sacrifice, and the blood spilled on that fateful day.
