Default Happy Tea Party Day!

Today is the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. On this day in 1773,
American colonists rose up against the oppression of British rule in
an anti-tax protest we know today as the Boston Tea Party. Dressed as
Native Americans these patriots stormed a British merchant ship and
dumped tea into Boston Harbor, setting in motion a chain of events
which would eventually lead to the American Revolution.

Just thought you'd like to know that. More on the subject.
