Dickchicken Noodle Soup
There’s nothing more patriotic on the 4th of July than to be looking on Twitter to see that Dickchicken left America a present. He placed 18 limited edition cans of Dickchicken Noodle Soup in front of Rob Pruitt’s “The Andy Monument” at the entrance to the former Factory (which is now a Petco) in Union Square in New York.

When I arrived on the scene, another Dickchicken fan was also there to claim his free art. I couldn’t help sticking around to watch the reaction from people passing by and I heard comments like “Why are they giving away free cans of soup?”

It’s hard to make out from these pictures, but the cans Dickchicken left behind are jumbo sized. Respect! By the time this post is up, the cans are likely to be gone, so hopefully you got one in time. I sure did! Thanks to Dickchicken for making this the best 4th of July ever!

The backdrop to my fireworks watching experience!
I went to a party in New Jersey on July 4, 2010 to watch the fireworks from New York (as it’s just across the Hudson River). I had no idea what I was in for! I grew up close to Disneyland in California, so for most of my childhood, I heard a nightly fireworks display. Typically, I could take or leave them, but I have to say, 2010 goes down as one of the coolest 4th of July fireworks viewings in recent memory. I had the entire Manhattan Skyline as a backdrop (see above) and after the jump, see what I witnessed. The photos are explosive!

Happy 4th of July. Celebrate your independence “before the whole shithouse goes up in flames,” as Jim Morrison used to say. He also once told a stadium full of people that they’re “all a bunch of fuckin’ idiots. How long are you going to let ‘em push you around? Maybe you love it? Maybe you love having your face stuck in the shit?” The man was a visionary!
