Remember those who have kept us free




You know I sometimes forget about how we got where we are now. I bitch about the way the government is run. I bitch about some freedoms I feel I should be able to have. But sometimes you have to take a look around and realize this is a pretty cool place to be. I'm in a place where I can chose to play music, any kinda music I want to. I can say whatever I want to. I live in a country where I can be me. How cool is that. But, my point is that we still are allowed to enjoy these freedoms and bitch about the government because of the people that put on the uniform and fight and die for those rights. Everyone knows a Vet. More than likely someone in your family is a vet. My Dad, Grandfather, Numerous uncles all served in the military during war time. These are the people that I suggest you take 2 minutes out of your day and call them and say thanks. This is a day to remember all those soldiers that fought for OUR rights. A lot of them never made it home. It's one day a year. Let's make a conscious effort just to say thanks. Let them know that we remember. Ok enough out of me. One more thing. Remember this, you don't have to agree with the reasons for the wars we have fought. Just remember the soldiers that didn't ask questions and did their job. Much love.


p.s. Keith, thank you my buddy(good game)
