Excuse me @realDonaldTrump, today is Memorial Day; it is a day set aside to honor service members who have paid the ultimate sacrifice or that have passed on. It's not a day to honor service members or veterans who are still among the living. Those days are Armed Forces Day and Veterans Day. With all due respect, please don't wish the living a "Happy Memorial Day." It’s a day of reflection and nothing a person should be "happy" about; it's a day of remembrance.
Today I honor my friend and fellow Soldier CW4 James Carter (July 11, 1965 - June 5, 2008) who died of wounds in an OH-58 Kiowa Warrior in Afghanistan. He left a wife and two sons behind after his ultimate sacrifice.
If you lost a family member or friend in the Armed Forces please honor them on Memorial Day.

Mark Twain said "It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.” There is no such thing as “stage 5 cancer.” And she is not a “medical” doctor. Never claimed to be. Know the difference. Good, Lord.
And just like that 20 years, happy anniversary American Idiot. We had no idea what this album would become, but we knew that it meant something to us, and it clearly resonated with you too. To anyone who’s blasted it in their car, sang it at the top of their lungs, or found a piece of themselves in these songs — thank you.
