Happy 4th of July guys. If you guys havent watched it before Independence Day is a great movie to watch. Bill Pullman does an amazing speech towards the end of the movie that truly defines what the day should mean to Americans.

Yes I know that its a movie that is fictional about aliens and what not, but to see everyone pulling together for world peace is the kind of thing that we as human beings should think about more often.

Celebrate your independence and remember those who died for it.

That's right, Adrian, these guys burst my bubble. I was going to wish them tonight (as it is now 4th morning here in Auckland), but looks like someone's jumped the gun.

Anyway, here's wishing all my fellow American friends a great weekend and a very happy American Independence Day.

Cheers - JJ

It's just Daren again, trying to one up you, JJ.

But, yes, Happy July 4th to all our fellow Yanks, both here and abroad. We will be doing the quintisential American thing on the 4th - going to a baseball game. What better way to spend the holiday!!

Love the pics, Daren, especially the bottom one. I'm wearing mine now.

That's good, too, Rob.
But we didn't have a grill at the hotel where we were staying, so going to the b-ball game was the next best thing.

We went to the Giants-Cincinnatti game. It turned into a real pitchers duel. Each team must have gone through at least 5 pitchers (I stopped counting after about the 4th each). Final score: CIN 11, SFG 10. The Giants seem to have a knack for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
