Hi Everyone, happy Memorial Day. There is a video on YouTube that says what this holiday is about. It was done by a 15 year old girl. Check it out, you won't be disappointed.

"Remember Me" is the name of the video

The following is the hottest thing on the internet and on Fox News today.
Lizzie Palmer who put this YouTube program together is 15 years old. There
have been over 3,000,000 hits as of this morning.

Have a great day and remember to pray for our troops. :D

Try posting a link. Most folks, like me, are too lazy to go around looking up videos.

As for me, I'm marching in a Memorial Day parade, tomorrow. I'm w/ EMS, as a lot of you know. And I swear, if anyone has a friggin' anti-war sign, I may just break ranks, even though I'm gonna be holding one side of the EMS banner...we'll be marching behind the Police of our town, should be interesting...if I'm not around for a few days, you'll know why :D

I've seen that one... very moving. And a good reminder to those of us who've forgotten the real reason for Memorial Day isn't picnics, the opening of the pool, and the running of the Indianapolis 500.

Thank You for Making Me Cry This Morning

And I mean that in the most humble and sincere, honest and heartfelt way I can possibly express it.

In memory of all the men and women who lost their lives fighting for our Country, and to those who survived to carry on the memory of the fight.
Thanks to all those in the Armed Forces, you are not forgotten and I think of you with the utmost respect.

A special thanks to John J. Maluska, who fought in WWII but lost his battle to Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma on May 24, 2005.

Beautifully said TOT.

A special thank you (if that's okay with everyone) to my father, brother, grandfathers, and to my Great Uncle Bobby who was lost at sea, June 6th, 1944.
