• Lost Hours, Remembrance Day and too many hours gaming...

  This past few weeks I've been going to work, playing games at work,
  going to the gym, playing games at home, sleeping, going to work....
  the cycle keeps on a going...

  But today (er... yesterday) was Remembrance Day. This day has become a
  media circus. If you asked ten people on the street, "What is the
  meaning of Remembrance Day?" They would all say the same thing: "It's
  the Day that we honour the fallen heroes of World War II and to thank
  them for our Freedom..."

  But, what does the average person know about the sacrificies that one truly made back then.

  Probably nothing... and it is a true shame.

  So I say this. Go to your Grandmother / Grandfather, Great Grandmother
  or Great Grandfather (if they are still around, god bless them) and
  give them a hug, kiss on the cheek and look into their eyes and say,

  Thanks for everything that you've done for me.

  Vx Out

  PS.... I was working on Friday and they told me to leave with
  the rest of the shift at 6pm... I came in early at Noon and was to work
  until 8pm... I emailed our HR manager asking if I could make up 2 extra
  hours along the way and he basically said no.  Fun...
