Wifely Wiferson decided that enjoying our extra day off this July 4th weekend wouldn't be complete without some ice cream. We drove to one of the many nearby restaurants that specialize in New England's favorite treat, ordered, and indulged ourselves inside our air-conditioned car, out of the 96ยบ heat.
Into the parking lot pulled a sedan driven by a man who was nearly as old as the temperature. I was trying to figure out why he sat in the car for a minute. Then I saw that he was sucking down a cigar the size of a tree branch.
Eventually he emerged, and slowly hunched his way inside to place an order. After nomming my ice cream for another couple minutes, out he came… with a hot coffee.
After a laugh, we set off for home, leaving him to suck down his vices – one in each hand.
I only had one thought driving home:
God Bless America.

Coffee is a drug and should be banned from the shores of our great country. It causes people to become irate and irrational and isn't regulated enough. It's like Ritalin, but in a cup.
That old guy was probably with the secret service.
Happy 4th. I did not blow off any body parts.
