Happy Celestial Being Day!

While reading about the 4th of July festivities in my neck of the woods, I was irritated to read that the Sachse 4th of July parade had a theme - and it wasnt the 4th of July. This year apparently, it's "Stars". Parade entrants are asked to "interpret the theme any way you want," the article says "You can be a movie star or even a celestial being!" Doesn't the 4th of July already have a theme? People should be dressing up as Uncle Sam and Betsy Ross, not Miley Cyrus or Betelgeus. I guess it's not surprising that our kids know more about Brangelina than about their nations history.
