Veterans Day in Retrospect…

...and a few other links.

• Over at my blog - Veterans Day, 2009: David Sullivan shares his experience. From the article: In Portland, Oregon this past Wednesday I went to my first Veterans Day Parade. I served from 1964-1968 on active duty in the Navy, then from 1979 -1996 in the Navy Reserve. This was the first time in 42 years I did not have to work Veterans Day.
• "Who Needs Mathematicians for Math?" - crazy liberals in the field of Education have bad ideas, money and influence. Not a good combination.
• "Chavez's Economic Problems Turn Nasty" - a case study in populism and tyranny.

Wasn't online much last week, and kinda glad I wasn't. The news is always repetitive, but sometimes moreso than other times, and being a blogger one has to roll with the news cycle. Sometimes that can be excruciating. Just hope the reading I did away from the computer will turn into more thoughtful blog entries.
