Have a good weekend, check out Nehring's latest carnival, and remember that tomorrow is Veteran's Day.

If you do nothing else, at least thank a veteran if you know one. Six simple words: "Thank you for serving our country." I say it to anyone I meet who happens to be a vet.

He quietly said "You're only the second person in thirty years to say that to me."
