so, it's officially the first weekend of a tourist destination's summer: Memorial Day Weekend. the traffic is rolling down the highways from PA, MD, VA, D.C. to the beaches, has been since Thursday afternoon. i made the mistake of grocery shopping for our own holiday weekend company yesterday. mercy mercy, it was a traffic jam in every aisle. and we do have holiday company coming soon - gotta go make some beds and clean some bathrooms right this minute. probably won't be posting or reading much until middle of next week. so to everyone in J-Land, happy and safe holidays, remember what the holiday is about, not just BBQ's and sunburns. i personally wish we could remember those who have served, and died, in past wars and from that memory draw the inference that war is, in general, a very bad idea. not use it for making ever more martial speeches and actions. that's my thinking.
and those of you who haven't gotten your free scoop of B & J's ice cream from my previous post - what is the matter with you? go there, do it! action for the environment and free ice cream, who could ask for anything more?

I'm finally out and about in J-Land trying to visit all my friends and here you go running off to play in the real world. Ain't life grand! Thanks for the B&J but I'll stick with my Breyers All Natural even if I do have to pay for it. I'm with you on using Memorial Day more as a remembrance of what is lost in war and coming up with a better means of resolving conflict instead of making it glorify the losses.

Have a Great Weekend!
