i know im one day off, but i was on a plane yesterday and i was jetlagged. anyway, happy birthday america! we have had 250 years of independance from britian. let me tell you some boring stuff about it. so there was a bunch of ships sailed over from europe by this guy, christopher columbia and he was looking for this far off land called india. he wanted to become rich by finding a better route to far off india. he was not that smart and thought the americas didn't exist. (couldn't someone have have told him before he sailed three ships?) any way he sailed halfway around the world and hit america. he thought he had reached india. he tried to buy silk from them but they didn't have it. so, chris took his anger out on the natives and enslaved them until some people from spain told him he wasn't being very nice. after that some british guy colonized the original 14.5 colonies and they existed for a while. this guy named king george started scamming the colonists with taxes. some whiney guys didn't seem to like his behavior and dumped his tea into the sea. (ive never really liked tea so i didn't know what the big deal was) basically both sides retaliated until some rich educated white british dudes got together in a hot and stinky house and wrote a break up letter to king george. george started a nine year war but the british soldiers had a lot in common with columbus and we won. we were a free nation and thats whats been going on until i typed out this and posted it. also, was king george really that fat?
