Belated Memorial Day Observance
I'm a day late on this, apologies. I celebrated Memorial Day by doing nothing related to our servicemen, as I suspect most other Americans did. I went camping with my brothers and their families and we had a nice time. I came home on Sunday to hear Andy Rooney giving his own opinion on how best to honor our veterans and he suggested that we should do it every day rather than on a day contrived to give us a long weekend. I almost never like what Andy Rooney has to say, but I think he's right about this. Now, having said that, I'm going to pay homage (even if belated) to the contrived day in question and offer thanks to the many sacrifices that our servicemen (and servicewomen) have made and continue to make to ensure that the American dream of liberty can continue.
