Also,

I'd like to tell you, dearest Internet: Happy Armistice Day.
I almost forgot and I think my blanking out on it possibly emphasizes the fact of the loss of meaning of this day, which is why I like when people say Armistice Day instead of Veteran's Day. So, thank you, Mr. Cowgill, my history teacher, for spreading your knowledge around. And, though I don't like war and think most of it's pointless bickering between two - or more - humans that happen to be leading a country, the people who are fighting in it are more often pawns in the process and I'd like to say thank you for the sacrifices that you make to join something you believe may effect something.
Here's a pretty cool link I found that really makes an impact behind the meaning of the day the "world stopped fighting".

Your friend,
Alex
