Cheating

Last week, I spent the entirety of a badminton game in gym class arguing about cheating. My doubles partner and I are both reasonably intellegent people, if I do say so myself, and our opponents were, shall we say, not. They were attempting to convince us that we were really mean because we wouldn't give them answers on tests. The girl we were facing kept on tossing around the phrase "share the wealth!"

What?

On a national level

Today is Veterans Day.

I was debating whether or not I was going to acknowledge it, but I've decided that I should.

I am, though I was not always, a patriotic American.

My patriotism might not lead me to agree with the present administration, or with a lot of what some prominent individuals say, but I do love my country and what it was founded on.

I respect the sacrifice of every veteran and every soldier, even if I don't necessarily agree with the war they fought in. They fought, they died or they survived, all for their country.

My salutes to you, members of the armed forces.
