My heartfelt thanks to all the service men and women, past and present, who were willing to lay down their lives in the service of their country and in particular to those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Doc

Hey Darn, my wife's anniversary is on the 16th, but she said i could'nt use the Golden Corral freebee. Who can figure them? That's money that could be pumped back into the old roady.

It's you WIFE's anniversary? Doesn't she let you share that day??

Some women just want everything...Oye...

On that subject, how come there are so many days that are "Their" day? Why is Valentines Day for the woman? Mothers Day, Anniversary's, Christmas (you get a new flannel shirt or tie) and she gets a new car or Jewelry?? Not fair... Veterans day was for the MEN of WWI at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month we honor them, the men!

Veterans Day Vets eat free at Applebee's and the 16th at Golden Coral?? That's my birthday!

Feed the fat old Vet, I love it!

Congrats to all the other Vets and those who served as LEO's and Fire Departments, and ANYONE who serves in the PGR. Honor our hero's!

Thanks Darn,
