I received an email from a business with this subject:
"Happy Independence Day 'Merica.....

Am I just too old and out of step to think we deserve the respect of using the full word America? At least they got Independence Day correct!

I go on record as liking things according to the old rules. Like the old way to write wedding invitations and shaking hands with a firm grasp and standing up to show respect.
