A True American Patriot

Last night, while routinely watching The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, he made an announcement that was very moving. Monday nights are usually my favorite time to watch Leno, as this is the night he features my favorite portion, which is 'headlines'. Before going into it, Jay announced that he was going to put on a comedy show free of charge. The community of Auburn Hills, just outside of Detroit, has been hard hit by auto industry layoffs due to the economy. The Palace at Auburn Hills donated the venue and Pepsi-Cola the sponsorship for this event. Leno stated that he understood the economic hardship imposed on many people, and wanted to give them the opportunity for a night out on him. Now, in my book, that's an example of a true American Patriot.
