Eleven Things

Nov 11, 2011 11:11

* Happy 30th birthday to the man I love.

* Happy Veteran's Day, All

* Happy Rememberance Day, Canada

* 93 years ago today, my grandfather was hit by a car, running across the street to buy candy in celebration of the Armistice being declared

* Nov 11th is also the birthday of Heinlein's main character, Lazarus Long. He was born the same year (1912) as my abovementioned grandfather, and both of them were named after President Woodrow Wilson.

* Sapphire & Steel Assignment 2

* 11-11-11! Only one more of these for a while...

* Important number, prime number, one goes into the house of 11 eleven times and always comes out once.

* November 10th, yesterday, is the anniversary of the founding of the US Marine corps in 1775. Happy Birthday, Marines.

* There was a wonderful children's book by Graeme Basse called the Eleventh Hour. I think I got that book for my eleventh birthday. Juvenile cryptography for the win. Remember - Kilroy Speaks The Truth!

* Eleventh Doctor, Matt Smith. I'm a fan. Show turns 48 in two weeks. Right on.
