Greetings all. Welcome to your weekend. I hope you have a good one.

I publish essays every Tuesday, and on Fridays paid subscribers get my weekly updates. Editorial note - if you don’t subscribe you should. Good stuff happens on Fridays.

This coming Tuesday is Election Day. This coming Friday is Veteran’s Day. Two big days for our country, and for me personally.

Because of that I am taking next week off. My next essay will be published on Tuesday, November 15. The next weekly update will be the 18th.

Next week should be a lot of things. But it won’t be boring. Go do some civic duty.

See y’all the 15th.

PS. Veteran’s Day is the one day of the year that it is 100% okay to thank vets for their service.
