Subject: Happy Fourth: 1976 Bicentennial Video

Written By: Foo Bar on 07/04/11 at 11:31 pm

Happy Birthday, America!

A trippy cornucopia of automobiles, hamburgers, TV sets, and hot dogs, and baseballs!

This bicentennial tribute was the result of your (parents') tax dollars at supremely psychedelic work, hiring animator Vince Collins.  Vincent went on to create the even trippier Malice in Wonderland (link) in 1982.

I was born in July 4, but in 1977, a year after the Bicentennial.

I remember the Bicentennial.  I was seven.  It was a time of unbridled patriotism.  Flags flying everywhere for months.  A loveable dope in the White House.  It was like 9/11...with fun instead of fear!

I remember the Bicentennial, too. For about a year before, they had the "Bicentennial Minute" on t.v. every night that started out, "Two hundred years ago today..."

The strange thing was with all my moves, I celebrated the 4th (actually on the 3rd) this year in the same place I celebrated the Bicentennial-on the beach in Waste West Haven, Conn. My sister still lives there.

My family celebrated the Bicentennial Fourth in New Boston, New Hampshire.  It was a rinky-dink town then, and it's a rinky-dink town now!

But subtract 9 months from 7\4\1977 and you get basically 10\1976. So yes, in part you were alive that year! 8)



Yeah, I was conceived in October 1976, so I was alive in my mother's womb!

 Celebrated the Bicentennial at Arnolds Park on the shores of beautiful Lake Okaboji Iowa. Had way too much fun and ended up sleeping in my Mustang.
