In the Unites States each November 11 is Veterans Day, a day dedicated to honor the veterans who have served in the armed forces defending the nation. Other nations celebrate it as Remembrance Day or Armistice Day, the reason for that is because on November 11, 1918 the armistice with Germany to end World War I took effect. Ironically, they said it was the war to end all wars. We all know how that really turned out...
Originally, here in the US the holiday was Armistice Day as well until Veterans groups pushed to have it changed to Veterans Day in 1954. I feel it's a much more fitting name as the end of World War I indirectly led to World War II. Every year local businesses often offer perks or discounts to veterans who served. As a veteran myself, I typically enjoy getting some free coffee every year.
Every year there are events and parades held for the holiday. Although I have to confess I've never participated in one myself, some of you may have. I don't know if

I think it's a great way to honor the veterans every year, and as a veteran it's always nice to have people remember your service and sacrifices you made for the nation.
Now back to the header, it's not an item I own. I found it browsing recently, sadly it's not silver or gold, only bronze. But the imagery is just too awesome to not share it! They run just about $10, and are supposedly limited edition, although I couldn't see any numbers or caps in place. So this would be an item to own for the art, not the metallic value, sadly.
Does anyone have any big plans for today, just out of curiosity? I plan on just staying home and relaxing personally. Every now and again it's good for the soul... My girlfriend went to the spa and get a massage, personally I've never been a fan of them myself. But there are a plethora of Asian massage parlors not too far from my home, it seems like they're everywhere anymore!
I do hope you enjoy your day, whether it's a holiday or not, enjoy life while you can! It's short!
That will do it for me for this Wenesday November 11, 2026. Hard to believe the holidays are just around the corner already. Where did the year go? Please feel free to leave any comments or questions below, and as always thank you so much for all of you support. It really is deeply appreciated!
Have a great day everyone!
