This is Memorial Day Weekend in the U.S. The actual holiday is on Monday, moved from its original static date of May 30 to the last Monday in May each year so that we could always have a three day weekend to kick off the summer season. Memorial day honors U.S. soldiers who died while serving in the military. Americans celebrate the day with car races, beach parties, and spending the weekend in a drunken haze. So pretty much like any other weekend, but an extra day to nurse your hangover. Or to nurse your hangover, but not at work.

Before I get working on mine, it seemed like an appropriate time for some pseudo-military beef eye candy. Enjoy.
