Katy Perry and I Wish You a Happy, Grateful Memorial Day

It's days like today I like to think about how fortunate we are to live in a land where we have the freedom to ogle girls like Katy Cockteasein a tight sweater and openly beg for her to show us her sweet yams. As stupid as that sounds, it's one of a thousand freedoms earned through brave men and women serving their nation and even paying the ultimate sacrifice which we honor on this particular day. There are many nations in this world where you'd be stone cold blocked from ogling Katy and I'd likely be the prettiest man in a political prison. At least, when I put on a little blush.

Today is the official start of summer and BBQ season and bikini season and hot girls in hardly any clothes. My favorite time of the year. But let us never forget that the road to happy times such as these are paved by the courage of defenders of the realm. There is much darkness in the world, much ignorance and repression. We can decry it from behind our computer screens, but somebody has to be out there in the cold night keeping the darkness at bay. A profound thank you to those who do. Now, Katy Cocktease, about those sweater puppies....Enjoy.
