Many people observe this holiday by visiting cemeteries and memorials. A national moment of remembrance takes place at 9 p.m. US Eastern time. Another tradition is to fly the U.S. flag at half-staff from dawn until noon local time. Volunteers place an American flag upon each gravesite located in a National Cemetery. The U.S. Air Force's "101 Critical Days of Summer" begin on this day as well. Some Americans use Memorial Day to also honor any family members who have died, not just servicemen.
In addition to remembrance, Memorial Day is also a time for picnics, barbecues, family gatherings, and sporting events. Some Americans also view Memorial Day as the unofficial beginning of summer and Labor Day as the unofficial end of the season.
This weekend I will be at the Global Warming Beach Party!

None of the above. It looks like the work of a tornado.
You have to be getting older if you can recognize at a glance that still is from Gilligan’s Island! I’m so sad.
A husband and wife came for counseling after 20 years of marriage. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionate tirade listing every problem they had ever had in the 20 years they had been married. She went on and on: feeling unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs she had endured over the course of their marriage.
Finally, after allowing this to go on for a sufficient length of time, the therapist got up, walked around the desk and, after asking the wife to stand up, embraced and kissed her passionately on the lips as her husband watched with raised eyebrows.
The woman shut up and quietly sat down as though in a daze. The therapist turned to the husband and said, “This is what your wife needs at least three times a week. Can you do this?”
The husband thought for a moment and replied, “Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays I golf.
One important lesson learned from that: regarding your earquake kit (big plastic tub), do NOT store the water jugs in the same tub as the gallon jugs of water....sigh
