Memorial Day

Some Americans spend today's holiday relaxing and enjoying barbecues, or reading, or otherwise relaxing. Some do not have the day off, and are busy with jobs or other roles. And they're right to do so -- all of them. They are enjoying the freedoms which so many have fought and died for.

I ask to not be among those working today. Allow me time to reflect. Allow me time to remember those who fought and died in war. Don't give me a battle between the U-Man and the Avengers. Don't give me a rock-climbing day off. Just... let me rest and reflect, here, in peace and quiet.

Thank you.
