Codex here. Is it really belated if it’s just one day late? Happy Birthday, United States of America. I hope you had loads of fun lighting bonfires, cooking meat, and setting off colorful explosions. You might have also celebrated freedom, without which we’d surely be worse off than Russia. Or Iran. We’re supposed to hate Iran again, right? I keep losing track.

And happy birthday to me, because I did all those things. Except for the bonfire thing. Unless you count the cake… but let’s not mention that…

AND my daughter made me a birthday comic card.

Please feel free to clip it cut and make your own birthday card with it for someone you love. Or perhaps the Ayatollah.
