My boys are off from school today because of Veteran's day. So earlier this week, I asked them if they knew what a veteran is.
My youngest son answered first, saying "Yeah, I know. It's a doctor that works on animals."
After I told him he was incorrect, my older boy said (in his usual pre-teen snot-nosed tone he uses when he thinks he's smarter than his brother) "Duhhh... I know what it is. It's a person that doesn't eat meat."
They both now know what a Veteran is, and what mom and dad did for a portion of their adult life.
To all my fellow veterans, Happy Veteran's Day. Thank you for your service and commitment.*

Today is Veteran's Day? Who knew??
Christ, are Dio and I the only iceholes who actually had to work today? Bitches.
I was wondering why it was so easy to get a seat on the train this morning. Figured it was on account of today being Friday, and motherfargers taking three day weekends.
Now I learn it's because they're honoring America's hired killers by doing nothing.
Ouch, Dio, that's even harsh by your standards.
I also have to work.
I'm honoring our Vets by passing lots of gas and seeing how many sudokus I can do in one day.
A fine tribute. Christ, I had chili last night, and my office is damn near uninhabitable. My boss came down to ask me a question, poked his head, grimaced and said he'd come back later.
Happy Veterans Day.
