July 4th Casa de Mousepod Screening©

mousepod · 06-29-2008, 08:19 PM

Hey all,

This Friday, on July 4th, I'll be watching 1776 (which is my annual tradition - as well as iSm's, I believe), along with (by overwhelming request) The Spirit of '76.

Hot dogs, Kool-Aid, chips 'n' dip etc.

Anyone interested?

Hmmm, I could be persuaded.

What time would the screening be? I kinda have a date for Disneyland fireworks in the evening. They don't do nuclear war anymore, but it's still fun. Sigh, Disneyland's nuclear war fireworks show was the best thing about once-upon-a-time public support for the Iraq occupation. Le Sigh.

I guess i'm glad the public's turned againt that ... but damn if that wasn't the best fireworks show ever put on by the hand of man. Shock and Awe in Anaheim!

Unfortunately, I already have 4th o' July plans already.
Yikes. I haven't been able to make the last few mousepod screenings... sorry, J.

What time?

CoasterMatt · 06-29-2008, 10:47 PM

I will be working myself into unconsciousness that day

Shoot! We won't be able to make it due to our being in Michigan at the time. If you want to switch the screening to Michigan, we'll totally be there.

But we're in next year, for the sing-along reading of it...

I *will* make one of these again

Unfortunately the 4th is not that day -- heading up to the Bay Area for a few days to visit with my Aunt (the good one, not the selfish one). Say hi to Benjy Franklin for me, yo!

I don't know whether this is sacrelige ... but might you consider having the screening on your usual night of Saturday, in this case the 5th???

I daresay most people have plans on the 4th ... and then not necessarily for the following two days of glorious post-4th weekend. There's no reason such a 3-day holiday cannot be a pean to freedom, liberty, independence and All-American fun!!

just a suggestion.
