It has to be said

First off, I want to point out that May 30 is the official Decoration Day -- you know, Memorial Day. Today.

I'd also like to point out that the parking lot of the local Mall was full. On Memorial Day. On a Sunday. One one hand, it's depressing, but on the other hand, it's good to know they're not getting drunk in a friend's backyard. (There again, they've got tomorrow, too.)

Quick poll for the comments section: How many of you went (or will go tomorrow) to the cemetary? Not even a National cemetary -- I'm not saying you have to make a pilgrimage to Arlington -- but just, wherever you've got relatives buried. Just a quick poll. Comments section.

Yeah. That's all I've got to say right now, but someone had to say it.
