Memorial Day

I'm hardly the first person to point this out, but this holiday isn't really about "the unofficial beginning of summer," or going to the beach, or having a barbecue, though all of those things are very nice indeed. No, it's about honoring those brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
 
Now, normally, I wouldn't point to a country song as an example of that because I'm not really that much of a country music fan, but I would urge everyone watch the following video and read this article about how the song was written. That is what this holiday is all about.

Since it's Friday night...

...and I've been neglecting the hell out of this blog as of late, how about a nice pic of The Doctor's new companion, Jenna-Louise Coleman?

Not that I'm complaining or anything, but she's awfully tan for a British chick, huh?
