• Did you know that if you're a veteran, and end up resting in a National Place, the Branch Of Service, sends 2 Soldiers to Stand Guard, Salute, Play Taps, and conduct the Flag Folding ceremony? I didn't know that either.
• I believe that a person should cherish the good, forget the bad, mourn, pick yourself up, and live on. Life is too short, and I don't think "anyone" would want me to do otherwise.
