Does every country observe November 11th as Veterans Day at least the countries that were involved in the fighting?

In Canada November 11th has always been called Remembrance Day. Monday was a holiday.

Of course I couldn't resist the temptation to break things again. I took an old DVD drive I had (old because I bought it in 2006, just before I became homeless, but new because it sat in storage for several years and then my PC died but I left the drive in it) and installed it in the new PC. After a little fiddling it works perfectly.
Then I saw a much better graphics card on eBay for a very good price. It took quite a bit of fighting to get it in, and it also needed a separate power source. I took out the new power supply I had bought and found out that they are modular these days. Instead of a huge bundle of cables coming out of a hole in the back, it has a whole lot of plugs, and cables to go in each one. I had been thinking about adapters and splitters, but now I found out that the cable I need came with the PSU - I just didn't know what it was. now I did, and once it was plugged in everything works perfectly. I'm actually learning something. In a couple of years, when everything is paid off, I might try my hand at building my own.

Got a change from the demolition work so I did some work for the 'Boss'.
This was an old concrete block garage until I built 2x10 walls with R 30 insulation then paneled it all. |

Driving home just now, Moira said she had a real hankering for brussels sprouts. I asked whether it had anything to do with all the brussels sprouts she could see out of the window... she got tetchy and said no because all she could see was sugar beet. I wasn't put off and asked her whether she got hungry for a steak every time we passed a cow in a field
