Happy Independence Day!

3 07 2009

It’s a little early but I’d like to wish everyone a Happy Independence Day.

My mother and I came to America (Florida) in 1987 after getting robbed and tied up at gun point in my country of Venezuela and never looked back. Despite not looking anything like your typical American and not always being able to cover up my accent, I love everything about this country.

I am going to spend the weekend firing up the grill, hitting the monthly card show, watching my Florida Marlins lose to the Pirates, and lighting up some fireworks with the family. I hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend.

As for the card below, it comes from 1995 Topps Stadium Club.

Have a great day. And enjoy that card show – hopefully there are no unexpected detours as a result of digging through all of those 3200 count boxes!!

If every American loved the country as much as its naturalized citizens, we wouldn’t be in the pickle we’re in now. It breaks my heart to hear from people who came here for opportunity, fleeing from oppressive regimes, only to see us go down that same road ourselves.

This is the first 4th of July where I don’t feel that there is anything to celebrate.
