Hello and welcome to today's game thread. I like using the 5-topic intro so here goes. 1. I don't feel like discussing the Twins. 2. I don't feel like discussing the Brewers. 3. July 4th is designated as Independence Day because on July 4, 1776 the final wording of the Declaration of Independence was approved by the Second Continental Congress. Most of the signatures on the best known version of the document, the one that is displayed at the National Archives, were made on August 2 of that year. 4."The Stars and Stripes Forever", composed by John Philip Sousa in 1896, was named the National March of the United States in 1987 by an act of Congress.
