Sit Down, John!




The above is the opening scene from the movie, 1776, the watching of which is a 4th of July tradition for the Rutledge Clan. It includes one of my favorite quotes of all time:

I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is a disgrace, that two are called a law firm, and that three or more become a Congress!


Happy 4th to all of you! And now I'm off to watch the movie!
