Veterans Day, what are you planning?
 
Tomorrow I'll be at a small parade on the west side of Phoenix watching the local Veterans Day Parade. I hope to engage in many conversations with all sorts of veterans!

I'll bring my green beret with me, maybe I'll get someone to call me out.....:D

Afterwards I'll come back home and make some BBQ and drink some beers. ;)

I helped load American flags on to trucks that are displayed around town about 12 day a year and tomorrow is one of the days. About 700 3X5' flags went out. Tomorrow about 8 PM lcl they get returned to storage. Non-profits make some money doing this so I like to help when I can.

I'm heading into work (we don't have off). Gonna repair a dog fence and remind my coworkers of the sacrifices veterans have made on their behalf. Then swinging by the VFDub and raising a glass with fellow vets. Later I'll call my Dad and tell him I love him.

The same thing that I always do...lie around and recover from celebrating the Marine Corps' Birthday. :D

Actually, I'll go to work and act natural. I am having a vet bud over for steaks and beer tomorrow. We'll call some distant buds on conference call and talk beaucoup s**t. As is our custom. Happy veterans to all. Thank you all for your service.

Heading to school, maybe piss of my Lib English professor (again :D ) by telling her how much her savior, Barry Soetoro, is nothing more than a huge jackwagon.

Then probably stop by a local Red Robin or Texas Roadhouse and take advantage of their Veteran's Day specials.

We're having lunch since one of our coworkers is a Vet. I even managed to find a Veteran's Day card for all of us to sign, it's getting more difficult to find them.

Happy Veteran's Day to all our Vets, thank you...our debt is large.

Being that I live just down the road from the Riverside National Cemetery I might attend the ceremonies. It's always crowded but many Veterans from all braches of the military attend. There's always a good fly-over of military aircraft too. Quit drinking 15 years ago though. :p

Happy Veterans Day to all.

Well said...as I say to my shrinking family of Vets...we owe a debt that can never be repaid. Thank you.

Going to put up a wreath and crosses at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Johnson County Iowa in honor of the nine boys from this area that never returned from the war, then am headed to the dedication of a new Veterans Memorial that has been placed where the old National Guard Armory used to stand. Then I will probably let some local restaurant feed me cause it's OUR special day. May the good Lord continue to bless each and every one of you!

Will do the Murphy workout at the local Crossfit gym in honor of Lt. Michael P. Murphy.

Rest in Peace Sir.

Veterans: Thank you.

Taking my son, daughter and her friend to the range to blow $300 in Frinkin Ammo! Show be a good day. More for the girls than my trigger time.

Daddy got teach his girl to protect herself, because a restraining order is just a piece of paper; as the saying goes.

Going to make a few phone calls to former teammates....

Today I had an opposition agitator cited for Interference of the distribution of election material - Max. $750 fine plus replacement costs today. Head Democrat operative actually came down and fired him and apologized. Really nice to get that JackWagon off the street. We also managed to collect 20% of the days take in signatures during all the drama.

I love the opposition, they drive more people over to sign the petition.

Tomorrow, I will forgo the free food and stand outside these restaurants doors collecting signatures to RecallHudackToo.org (Facebook/RecallHudackToo). State Senator Hudak will be the third of the Constitutional breaking, gun grabbing, money we don't have spending, constituent ignoring politicians that will will be recalled by the now awaken people of Colorado.

People who want to help out can PM me. Next weekend, one lucky volunteer will win a AR-15.
