May 28: Parade, Cemetery, New Cartoon

We just got done attending a Memorial Day parade and then a Memorial Day service at a local cemetery.  It was a nice morning.  Warm, and getting warmer.  We are currently having lunch at McDonald's.  I know that doesn't sound very exciting to most people, but I'm not a big fan of excitement, unless it involves great sums of free money, literary awards/publications, or a surprise buyer for my house.  I'll take that excitement.

Not too much else on the agenda for today.  A barbecue.  Watermelon and bratwurst.  We may watch America's Got Talent tonight.  I'm kinda liking Howard Stern as a judge.  I thought I was going to absolutely hate him, but he's funny and, more importantly, inoffensive.  And he likes weird talents.  (He sent a contestant to Vegas whose claim to fame was getting kicked, punched, and hit in the balls over and over and over and over.  It hurt me to watch.)

I want again to wish all veterans and their families a happy Memorial Day.  I salute all men and women who have put their lives on the line to protect world justice, freedom, and peace.

Saint Marty doffs his halo to you.
