Is your YouTube video "Made for Kids" or "Not Made for Kids"? Have no idea? It does not matter. You have to answer. Choose one. It is a binary choice. If the answer is "Made for Kids", you will lose many privileges. If not, all is well. Of course, we all say "Not Made for Kids." But what is this really all about? Julia and I discuss in the video embedded below.

Remembering Veterans
Today was Veterans Day. Julia Hanna told me about her two grandfathers, Grandfather Mike Hanna and Grandpa Fulkerson. They each served in World War II.
She also shared information about her great grandfather Moses Hanna who served in WWI, and who was awarded American citizenship after his service.
I spoke about Jean Laffite, who saved the United States in the Battle of New Orleans, whose ships were looted by the Navy, and who still chose to donate flints and gunpowder as well as artillery, but received no reward, not even citizenship. I also mentioned Aaron Burr who served in the Revolutionary War, but was not recognized as a veteran until very late in his life.

Lebanon: Current Protests & the Glorious Past
When I think of Lebanon, I cannot help but think about tall cedars and free commerce and Phoenicians and the Land of Canaan. I think of Tyre and Sidon, but also of those who left. Often when I think about the Phoenicians, I also think of Carthage. A recent discussion with Julia Hanna on a livestream brought up both the past and the present.
I had been drawing Hannibal as part of the Inktober art challenge.
I also recently dined at That Lebanese Place, a restaurant whose name is self-explanatory.
When I was looking for the menus to use in my review, I came across a Facebook video depicting the recent protests in Lebanon that was posted by the owner of the restaurant. I shared that video with Julia, and she shared a video she had found of Nassim Taleb speaking in Arabic about current events in Lebanon. Julia and I decided to share this information with our viewers.
Watching the protesters enjoying barbecue and dancing in the streets to protest taxation, centralized banking and crushing national debt, I felt suddenly hopeful. Are these people more libertarian than we are?
