BULL SHOALS — Today is Veterans Day. At the 11th hour, on the 11th day of the 11th month, the guns of World War I fell silent. And, 115 years later, let us remember them and all veterans who protect our country and our freedom. Thanksgiving is coming up fast. If you are alone or don’t want to cook, Hoevel-Barnett Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1341 is having its fantastic, community Thanksgiving meal again this year from 1:30-4:30 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day. Sign up sheets are located in the VFW hall foyer, so stop by and add your name to the list if you want to attend. They need to know how much food to prepare. The traditional meal is wonderful. Turkey and ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potatoes, roll, desserts and beverage, all for a donation to the cause. The meal is available dine-in or carryout, and due to a foolproof system, everything moves quickly.

Common Quandary

A Common Quandary to discuss

Another conversation to explore, separate from this news story.

The luxury hotel charges too much and will never miss one robe. Do you pack it?

After an expensive hotel stay, you notice a plush robe without a price tag or warning. The room cost more than expected, several promised amenities were unavailable, and you convince yourself the robe is probably included.

When does feeling overcharged become permission to compensate yourself?
