Happy Veteran's Day

to the other vets and you have a good day too george ;-(

ooops wrong key above not ( but :-)

Any deals for vets today?

Applebee's, Chili's and a few more offering free meals but have seen no strip club deals. Bad news banks, etc closed so we can't get cash to go clubbing.

Thanks guys, and ladies for your service.

Yes, thanks to all the veterans out there.

My father belonged to what Tom Brokaw described as "The Greatest Generation". He turned 18 in April, 1944. Finished high school in May and left for basic training a week after his graduation. The day he turned 18, he signed up for the service...didn't even wait to be drafted. This was 2 months before D-Day, so at that time he had no idea how long yet the war could go on. I admire the courage he had to do that. I don't think I could have done that.

Thanks to all veterans! Glad we have the freedoms we do, thanks to you. Took Dad (WWII) to a local club (non sc) where we honored all the vets. I served in Vietnam era but was stationed stateside for which i was also thankful. Good to see respect due.

I salute all the veterans too. Thank you very much for serving your country.

I am typing this and sitting in this free society because of what you have done and continue to do. With more thanks than I can express

I'll try, troop, but yesterday was the more personally important day. :)

Columbus Gold gives free admission any time if you have a military ID. The dance prices are a major rip off ($50/song or a sale price of 3 for $99).

Much love and many thanks to all of our military personnel (current and veterans).

Club veterans count?

A little late, but Hooters had a nice wing deal, and the view was good too. I had a free breakfast and chatted with a Korean war vet and Vietnam war vet, and they filled me in on that special, thank you very much guys. 1st Persian Gulf war vet myself.

For the first time since my father's death I was unable to visit his grave on November 11. My old man was one of Canada's genuine heroes in WWII and a tough old bastard to boot (wounded five times in all the combat he saw during the war).

I went to the Remembrance Day ceremony in downtown Toronto on 11/11/11 at 1100AM.
