Well, depending on where you live Monday is the United States unofficial start of summer - boating, beaches, etc.
This memorial day weekend, please remember what Memorial Day is all about - after all, the grills you are cooking on wouldn't be there if it weren't for the brave men and women of our military.
Memorial Day is also one of the 5 "BIG" DWI (driving drunk) days. And you can expect roadblocks, and a greatly increased police presence. ".08" is the legal limit in most states, and it doesn't take much to get to that level. Use a designated driver. It would really be a tragedy to loose all you worked for and earn a possible deportation just because you couldn't use common sense.

When in college and working summers down at the New Jersey shore this was the BIG kick off weekend.

Hey Matt and Bob Happy Memorial Day weekend dudes!
I hear you Matt! Not only wouldn't the BBQ grills be there, but also many other things wouldn't either. If it weren't for VETERANS the T-shirt above (if it was even permitted to wear a T-shirt making a statement) would be written in another language. Canada and the United States of America ARE MULTINATIONAL countries, because of veterans who gave us the privilege and liberty to be multinational, many at the cost of their own lives.
Cheers,
James

My bumper sticker used to say "Thank a Marine."

I don't understand the second sentence. Americans were speaking English before there ever were any American vets. If we can read it in English, we should thank our British overlords.

Point is, English would not be the official language.
