I know it's still mighty early in the states, but over across the Pacific there's been plenty of time to crack open a few cold ones to celebrate Veteran's Day. There are many variations to the cost that a veteran pays for this country's freedom: it can be a relatively paltry 4-5 years of one's life, or it can be the highest price that anyone alive can pay. I hope everyone today takes at least a second to remember those great men and women, or if you happen to know or meet one, shake his or her hand, look them in the eye, and thank them for paying their dues.
