Another miserable Monday

A Memorial look....at Memorial Day

Let us pause.....and take a moment to reflect on this day and pay our respect to all those veterans of foreign  and domestics wars who gave the ultimate sacrifice....their lives.

Here's what Wikipedia says it means:

 Memorial Day is a federal holiday observed annually in the United States on the last Monday of May.[1] Memorial Day is a day of remembering the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.[2] Formerly known as Decoration Day, it originated after the American Civil War to commemorate the Union soldiers who died in the Civil War. By the 20th century Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died in all wars. It typically marks the start of the summer vacation season, while Labor Day marks its end.

Love & Divorce....NFL Style

This divorce thing  is getting old.   Doesn't anybody want to be married anymore?

What a shame..

From our friends at TMZ.com:

 

Barry Sanders Divorce
We've Got A TON of Issues

Exclusive
0511_barry_sanders_wife
Barry Sanders and his wife are NOT playing nice in their divorce -- the couple is butting heads over EVERY conceivable point of contention ... including money and custody ... TMZ has learned.

The NFL legend filed for divorce from his TV anchor wife Lauren Campbell-Sanders back in February ... but proceedings hit a rough patch because the two couldn't agree on how to divvy up their stuff.

According to new legal docs obtained by TMZ ... Barry and Lauren recently went to a mediator to help work out their issues ... but it was a total failure.

The docs show the two are still battling over all 5 major issues in any divorce -- custody, parenting time, spousal support, child support and property.

The judge has now ordered take a 2nd shot at settling their beef before resorting to a full-blown messy, expensive trial.

The two were married back in 2000 and have 3 minor children together.
