Memorial Day

For Memorial Day this year I would like to first of all thank all of you that served our country in any way.

I want to thank everyone that supports our military. All the celebrities that have gone over seas to put on shows or to meet with the troops. All of the actors, musicians, sports figures taking time out of either a busy schedule or giving up their free time.

I want to thank all the companies that donate goods and services. One that I always like to talk about is Starbucks. Most of us have seen the email that circulates every year or so, talking about how Starbucks doesn't support the military, and refused to give whoever supposedly wrote the company coffee. Well, Thank you Starbucks. From my first hand point of view, all the coffee I drank when I was in Iraq was from Starbucks. They donated that much to the Red Cross to give to the military.

I also want to say thanks to all the companies here at home that give discounts to military members. All of the restaurants, the home supply stores and anywhere else.

Thank You all.
