Memorial Day was Made for the Hero.
To the One in Blue who risks life and limb every normal day of every ten-hour shift…to the oxygen-masked Firefighter who snatches the infant from the smoke-filled room right before her crib ignites…to the maniacally-brave Soldier who jumps from the ramp of the landing Osprey and sprints toward the chaos instead of away from it!…I honor you. To all these folks…may Memorial Day be a great day for you…because it was made for you.
As I languish in my easy chair…I realize it was you who provided me this means…regardless of how useless and lazy a thing it is!
So to you, I don my Armitron Tactical digital watch and say…”I’ll be good god-damned if you guys don’t deserve this day!”
God bless!
Time dictates my linear path to its bitter end. My watches keep me one step ahead of time…and one foot out of the grave.
