Transcript:
Before we say grace and have our early 4th of July Sunday picnic, I want you to read some notes I took as a young girl in American history class! But... That sounds like school! And this is summer! And you too can hush! I know of no safe depository... Of the society but the people themselves. If ever there was a holy war, it was that which saved our liberties and gave us independence. And this one! How I feel about you! The glow of one warm thought is to me worth more than money. All those words are from Thomas Jefferson! A personal hero- and one of the people who we give thanks to for our freedom! He's one of those old-time guys that always sound so smart! Old-time people have a whole lifetime to practice sounding smart!

For some reason, since the demise of the silver dollar, Americans have resisted dollar coins and probably always will.

Beautiful. Always wonderful, seeing Phil, Fritzi, Nancy and Sluggo getting together to enjoy a family picnic during the holidays.

@Guy Gilchrist (yesterday) re: you comment to Ghost01….sometimes GoComics is having a problem, or something in between. I, too had problems seeing the comics for a while, but it was all the comics, not just yours.

Thomas Jefferson also said, “Indeed I tremble for my country when I consider that God is just.”

For many people, coins just end up in an old jar.

I’ve actually lived in a place that took out the coin operated units (so many break ins to get coins out) and put in machines with cards that you could reload with money from your account… I also sometimes wonder if vending machines can take credit, will they soon do that with everything else?

As a descendant of slaves, I always take issue when Thomas Jefferson is quoted. What a hypocrite, the author of the Declaration of Independence was also a slave owner. All this talk about a holy war and protecting someone’s freedoms and liberties. Is this the message we wanna share with our children?
