Happy Veterans' Day?

It doesn't seem appropriate to call it happy...but what adjective should go there instead? Thoughtful Veterans' Day? Or should it be a command, Remember Veterans' Day? That sounds condescending, like I am sure you would forget otherwise. I don't even know if I'm putting the apostrophe in the right place. My calendar has no apostrophe.

OMG Did you know Jennifer Love Hewitt is the National Veterans(') Day spokesperson! I love her boobs...I mean her work! God bless her. I really do think she's kind of adorable, and now more respectable than ever.

And there's a FAQ to answer my question about the apostrophe:

Q. Which is the correct spelling of Veterans Day?

a. "Veterans Day"
b. "Veteran's Day"
c. "Veterans' Day"

A. Veterans Day (choice a, above).
Veterans Day does not include an apostrophe but does include an "s" at the end of "veterans" because it is not a day that "belongs" to veterans, it is a day for honoring all veterans.

As in, it's the plural of Vetran? Makes sense I guess. But I thought it belonged to the Vetrans? No? I've been wrong all along I guess.

Go Jennifer Love!

Congratulations on your Veterans Day?

No, that doensn't sound right either.

Have fun shopping on Veterans Day.

That sounds right.

She really does have great boobs, doesn't she? I need to get me a pair like those. Hmmm... I say that like I can go to a drive thru & leave with great boobs. You know, that would be pretty cool.

"I'd like a set of Jennifer Love Hewits (plural, not possessive)."

"Thanks. You're total is $5000. Pull up to the last window."
