Today is Memorial Day,a time of barbecues and beach picnics.Before you chow down, remember those who have given up their lives so you can have this holiday. Better yet, sit down with family and friends or with coworkers and classmates and think about organizing food drives for our troops overseas. Get involved with organizations who send care packages over to our brave forces. Remember they signed up voluntarily. They're fighting in some of the most God forsaken places because they want to - not because they have to. Thanks them anyway you can from sending home baked cookies to donating proceeds from lemonade stands .
Have a good holiday. Always think about what this day stands for - and all the freedoms that our soldiers fought for from 1776 to the present wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
