Vets Demand Kids Miss School

New Jersey residents have been constantly proving the state’s worthiness to the union for centuries. Many of them have enlisted in the armed forces to contribute to the national pasttime, war.

At least a few of them have gone a step further. They’ve decided to protest a Gloucester, N.J., school board meeting tonight for its decision to hold classes on Veterans Day, the day no one knows how to punctuate.

The vets are so angry they’ve brought out all the stops. These won’t be any ordinary veterans, though:

“I understand there’s going to be several disabled veterans groups there, and we’re going to present it to the board of education that we feel November 11th should be a day off in observance of Veteran’s Day.”

Whoa, pulling out the big guns right away. I fully expect the school board to retaliate with a group of children who would have graduated had they just gone to one day of classes on Veterans Day.

    It’s pretty and so easy to read with the big letters, I like it, and I think my boss can see what I am doing from his desk now.

    Peaceniks ought to go back to calling it “Armistice Day.” It was originally a holiday about peace, you know.
