Off for Veterans Day .. nice three-day weekend.
Thanks to all who volunteer, have volunteered, were
drafted, and have served.

It was an honor to serve.
Unfortunately, I'm working.
But I'm thinking of bringing a hand grenade to work so I can frag my boss (for making a Veteran work).

Working. And the kids have school.

I don't think I've ever worked for a company that had Veterans Day as a holiday.

At work today, the company gave us the day after Thanksgiving as a paid holiday instead. Veteran's Day who? #Team_BLackFridaY #WalMart #USA

As always, schools are closed, so we're open -- and packed.

You want to thanks us?
Then promise me you will vote for candidates who will maintain or improve veterans benefits and care at VA hospitals.

How do you differentiate between those that say they will and those that actually care?

You can look at their track record. And sometimes you'll be surprised. My old friend John Hall, recently defeated by a Tea Party candidate after two terms in Congress -- probably know more for his No Nukes concerts -- was a tireless worker on behalf of veterans while he was in office.

Tom Seaver is presumably mucking about in his winery working, so who am I to take off?
