\"Observe Memorial Day\"
Please, don't just take the day off, without at least a private moment or two of contemplation for how and why we have this extra day of rest.
Freedom is NOT free......and hundreds of thousands of U.S. Soldiers have paid the ultimate price for our right to Bar-B-Que, Worship, Live, and drive how and what pleases us. If you ever get to visit Arlington, or The Wall, or any US Military Cemetary on Foreign soul, only then can you comprehend the depths of sacrifice our countrymen have paid....and continue pay.
We are the envy of most of the world......because a few hundred thousand have paid with their lives. And because millions more were WILLING TO.
Our freedom was paid for. And installments are still occasionly due.
On MONDAY, Until NOON, Flags at HALF STAFF PLEASE....Say that prayer, and HAVE A GREAT HOLIDAY.
[ I'm BBQ-ing Sturgeon and Monkfish............and celebrating the 10th anniversary of the VIPER GTS as INDY PACE CAR, TODAY, MAY 26th! ]
Note: Since this is an "international" forum, some may NOT know that this is USA-Memorial Day Weekend. A National holiday, Monday 5/29. Other countries may share this same date, or have similar holidays to honor their war-deaths.
