Holiday? What's a Holiday?

It used to be that on Memorial Day, my friend Kim & I would join members of the American Legion post (long story short, our Star Trek group's leader was the elected head at the AL Hall we had our meetings at), go out to the old cemetery here in Bremerton (as in right smack in the middle of town) and put flags on the graves of all service men. I liked it as I was only one, even with a map, that could find the two British officers buried there. We'd be up at 5am and out there placing flags by 6am.

Most think of it as the beginning of summer, for kids, a holiday that officially starts the countdown to the end of school. It's important to remember Memorial day's purpose.

I need to get myself moving and to the dump. Garbage isn't going to take itself and its closed tomorrow. I figure I'll hit the grocery store this evening. I like shopping either early in the day or later in the day. Weekend with a holiday--all bets are off.

Let's see: Watched about 15 minutes of South Park last night before I dropped off. Woke up to 9-11 Conspiracy Theories on History (don't get me started--really!!) Today will be listening to the races and figuring out what to buy for the week. Jack has an appointment with the diabetic dietician on Wednesday (I think). We need to get his replacement insurance card. On the agenda for the week.

Mindy of bad cartoons and theories on why they are bad..
