I just found out that my aunt, a lifelong Republican, voted for a Democrat in California.

This never would have happened if she were still alive.

No word from Black Lives Matter or Al Sharpton.

Not one demand for answers. Not one national outrage campaign. Not even people saying her name.

This is Margaret Swan, a great-grandmother who was stabbed to death 20 times in a random attack in the middle of the day on Atlanta’s public transit.

Her murder was the second horrific attack on MARTA in just one week.

I want answers from Atlanta. The number of assaults, robberies, and rapes on MARTA trains is more than three times the national average.

On this day in 1944 a little town in the Blue Ridge Mountains with about 3200 people would lose 20 sons, with 19 coming on Omaha Beach during the first wave.

The “Bedford Boys” were made up primarily from Company A, 116th Infantry Regiment, 29th Infantry Division, and trained for two years in England before leading the charge for one of the greatest battles in history. Bedford would lose 23 sons in total, making it the highest per capita loss of life of any town, which led Congress in to designate Bedford as the site of the D-Day Memorial, dedicated in 2001.

@the_iceman64 Bedford VA had a higher percentage of young men lost hence the D-Day Memorial. It is a beautiful tribute to this magnificent mission!

This is funny! 🤣

I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 60 years later. I don't have to go to school or work. I get an allowance every month. I have my own pad. I don't have a curfew. I have a driver's license and my own car. The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant and I don't have acne.

Life is great. I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People get out of the way much faster now.

Gone are the days when girls used to cook like their mothers. Now they drink like their fathers.

I didn't make it to the gym today. That makes five years in a row.

I decided to stop calling the bathroom "John" and renamed it the "Jim". I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

When I was a child I thought "nap time" was a punishment. Now it feels like a small vacation.

The biggest lie I tell myself is... " I don't have to write that down, I'll remember it".

If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would've put them on my knees.

Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven't met yet.

Why do I have to press one for English when you're just going to transfer me to someone I can't understand anyway?

Of course, I talk to myself. Sometimes I need expert advice.

At my age "Getting Lucky" means walking into a room and remembering what I came In there for.

“Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?’ And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”
~ Isaiah 6:8

This Memorial Day, we Americans remember the brave men and women who answered that same call. I wore this scripture on a chain around my neck for 20 years.

They heard the voice of duty — of God and country — and said, “Send me.” They left homes, families, and futures behind to defend liberty on distant battlefields.

Some never returned. Their sacrifice was total. Their “Here am I” became eternal.

Today we honor their courage, their faith, and the freedom they secured for us. We owe them a debt we can never fully repay — only remember and live worthy of.

To every Gold Star family, every veteran who carried the weight: Thank you.

May we never forget those who said “Send me”… and meant it with their lives.🙏✝️

Goodnight, ya’ll.
