Be Careful With Those Fireworks!

(Photo: Terry Richardson) Okay, kids, that's gonna do it for us for the week! Before you go, why not celebrate the dreams and ideals our Founding Fathers fought to establish by subscribing to our print edition! It's Pop Culture for Smart People, which was one of the inalienable rights Thomas Jefferson mentioned in the Declaration of Independence (although it was taken out of the final draft because he didn't like the flow).

As for us, we'll see you back here on Monday. If you're bored or curious during your three-day vacation, please enjoy this selection of quality features, all of which have been chosen because they match the mood of the holiday (i.e., they mention America in the title). And have yourselves a great weekend. You've earned it!
