Memorial Day. It's the kickstart to summer vacations, but it's so much more than that. This Memorial Day weekend when you are enjoying the great food, friends and family, take some time to remember what this day is really about.

Back on this day in 1981, President Ronald Reagan was shot in the chest outside a Washington, D.C., hotel by John Hinckley, Jr. and luckily survived the assassination attempt. Who could forget his grace and wit afterward? Man, I do miss that man!
