Memorial Day

I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day. Everyone's doing cookouts, the beach, the lake, or in my case, cleaning the house, and I hope you all had fun.

That being said, please take a minute and remember the REAL reason behind Memorial Day. It's not to kick off summer, it's not for a furniture sale, it's not a reason to buy a lot of beer or rent a shore house, it's to remember the men and women who have given their lives in service for their country. I don't care what your ideas are about this war, the state of our country, or our President - the reality is that there are a lot of people who have gone out and done what most of us don't have the courage to do, losing their lives in the process.

Take some time out of your day to do something to honor them.
