Liberté! Égalité! Fraternité!

Mesdames et Monsieurs, happy Bastille day!

One might celebrate the traditional way:

Enjoy a french revolution cocktail, storm a bastion of class oppression, free everyone, and send the aristocracy to the chop.

Or, perhaps, simply recall liberty, equality, and brotherhood as a national ideal. It was, um, ours, at one point. It's where they got the idea, what with Franklin and Jefferson partying in Paris till dawn.
