It seems we have confused Veteran's Day with Memorial Day. Veteran's Day honors ALL veterans, living or dead, still serving, discharged or retired. While we should certainly honor our fallen comrades as well, lets not forget those among us who took time from their lives to serve their counrty honorably, whether for a single tour of duty, or for a career. Find a Vet today and thank him/her for your freedom.

Don't forget that today, Nov. 10 is the birthday of the Marine Corps.

Daily Horoscope for December 30

Virgo

If the December sales are calling you, you'd better work out a budget before you leave the house. Otherwise, you'll be tempted to use your credit card first and only consider the cost of your purchase later on. Even so, you could track down some great bargains now, provided you don't get carried away and buy items that you don't really want simply because you're astonished by the amount of money you'll save in buying them. But you'll save even more money if you don't buy them!
