Happy Memorial Day everyone.

I think it is fitting considering the moderators’ Homeric names that I spent my memorial day looking at Heinrich Schliemann’s tomb in Athens, Greece.

Go Bruins!

Memorial Day rememberance

As a combat veteran of Vietnam I appreciate what this country means to me, and the phrase “freedom isn’t free” is as true today as it was in the beginning of the country.

Thank you,

To Nestor, for that photo and for the poignant words.

And more importantly, to all the servicemen and women who done so much for so many. You have our deepest appreciation and admiration.

Remembering (and Teaching)

I took my daughter with me to Forest Lawn to leave some flags and flowers at my grandparents’ graves. One set is in the vets’ section and I’d like to offer kudos to the Girl Scouts who were there setting up flags.
