Today was my first attempt at being in the Knights of Columbus honor guard while we had a Memorial Day Observence ceremony. I am now at the Public Library, after the event, literally fogging up the place as I am now stewing in my own juices--but at least I'm wearing part of a tux. Welcome to Alabama in summertime. Is it Summer? It probably is. Today at least. Don't ask.
So I lock my keys in the car, because I've put them in the other pants I had been wearing before changing into the tuxedo. So they were at least in one of my pockets... But thanks be to said Man in Uniform, I was able to get into the car--which has seen much more in the way of self-propelled break-ins.
As is now usual, I only have a few minutes left on this terminal, but I wanted to salute all the veterans and remember those who have paid the ultimate price for something that is never free.
