Good morning! Here we are in November and I pretty much am mowing the lawn in order to pick up the leaves. In the front yard anyway, trying to clear a path for any possible trick-or-treaters. I have used the leaf blower three times in the back yard and filled my half of the dumpster. The trees are not finished with me yet. November has thirty days and on the 3rd one we were at the voting polls for this year’s general election choices. Prior to the election the Republicans were in control of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Not sure where they all stand right now, but more changes are about to happen I am guessing. Wednesday, Nov. 11 is Veterans Day, reminding us of those who have served in the military and of those currently in service. Veterans Day began as Armistice Day at the end of WW I when an armistice between the Allied Nations and Germany took place on the 11th hour, of the 11th day , of the 11th month.

Common Quandary

A Common Quandary to discuss

Another conversation to explore, separate from this news story.

The restaurant forgot your expensive entrée. Do you point it out?

After a crowded dinner, you notice the restaurant omitted your most expensive entrée from the bill. Service was slow, the server seemed overwhelmed, and correcting it may create trouble for the person who made the mistake.

Does protecting someone from consequences ever justify benefiting from their error?
