Bill O'Rights

The 4th of July is great. That is the date that we officialy thumbed our noses at England. However...I believe that the date that The United States of America really became a country of its own was October 19, 1781. The date that Major General Lord Cornwallis surrendered to General George Washington. The capitulation of the British to the Americans and French forces ended the fighting, and led to the [Paris?] Peace Treaty that formally acknowledged the independence of the American states.



For some reason though, that's not as much fun.

Happy 4th of July!!!!
