1. We piddle, twiddle, and resolve

Not one damn thing do we solve.

Great musical! I saw it 20 some years ago on Broadway. Always loved it.

7. Daily Motion has too many commercials and the print is inferior.

This looks like a pretty good print of the entire movie.

11. Thanks for the great archive link to 1776

I watched it, there were no commercials. I will use that site again.

I hadn't used that Daily motion site before, but did check it out after your post and they have the most commercials I've seen on line. Sorry I shared the link. I've watched free movies on YouTube, crackle, Tubi, Hulu, and a few others over the past few years. Renting on line is still cheaper than going to a theatre, but if I'm looking for entertainment from a movie there are so many free ones to choose from.

12. I did watch 1776 once on Daily Motion.

It took nearly four hours because of the all the commercials. I was determined to get through the whole thing in order to have seen it for free, which I felt was my right as an American! But oh what a price I paid in suffered abuse lol.

8. I always watch "Yankee Doodle Dandy"

and if it is on TV "Born On The 4th Of July". My birthday is July 3rd so I missed it by 1 day...damn. My sister was born on Christmas.

Yankee Doodle Dandy... July 4th, 9:15 AM - 11:30 TCM (Turner Classic Movies) PST (Pacific Standard Time).

1776.... July 4th, 11:30 AM - 2:15 PM TCM

4. Republicans have turned the whole fucking idea of 1776 into a joke.

IMHO

6. Watching 1776 is a family tradition for us, too!

But we'll be on a genealogy trip high in the mountains this year. We'll have to watch it later in the month.
