first of month

Jeff,
We use a simple function that can be called in any query, like so:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE column < first_of_month();

-- Function: public.first_of_month()
CREATE FUNCTION public.first_of_month() RETURNS date AS '
DECLARE stamp DATE;

BEGIN
SELECT INTO stamp CAST(date_trunc(''month'',now())AS DATE);
return stamp;
END;'  LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' STABLE;
