Happy Evacuation Day!

I love Gawker, because it makes history fun! (Well, that's one reason among many.) Here is a great "article" about Evacuation Day, the anniversary of the day (November 25!) in 1783 when British troops finally left the newly independent US of A.

Also, regular visitors (Dad...) will know that one of the best parts about the site is the hilarious comments people leave. My favorite this time is, "What's great about this post is the conclusion, unspoken but obvious, that we all lived happily ever after."

Happy Evacuation Day!

Those gays obviously don't think a Brit is going to leave a comment...

Which I sneakily did... ^^
