5. It's not so bad...
It was worse when I was kid. Several times it was the first day of school. Plus my presents were all back to school stuff..

Although, it did ruin my birthday 2 years ago..

36. The most important philosopher of postwar Germany was born...
on September 11, too: Theodor W. Adorno. It's his 100 birthday today. He was escaping to the USA from Nazi Germany and came back after the war. So, there are good things related to this sad date, too.
Happy Birthday from Germany,
Dirk

4. First, remember them...
Then, later on, celebrate you! :D

That's not heretical by any means--you WERE born on A September 11th, right? People born on December 7th and November 22nd (another difficult one this year--the 40th) also didn't ask to be born on "days that will live in infamy". But they probably celebrate THEIR birthdays on those days, too!

Commemorate their lives...and then give thanks for the one you have!:-)

B-)

6. We will one day celerbrate their lives and not the manner of their passing
And some day it will come to pass their deaths will no longer be used as a raylling cry for war and destruction. Neither for bondage, nor for the removal of our liberties.

This is my eulogy for today.


And some day it may be a paid bank holiday or 3-day weekend. ;-)

18. Love your sig. line...
It reminds of the line, "If there are no dogs in heaven, how can it be called Heaven?"

22. Just have fun!
Mine is the 13th and I thought that was close enough to the 11th to always link them. In fact, I was on my way to get my driver's license renewed two years ago today because it expired on my birthday.

Remember the dead (as if any of us could forget) and celebrate YOUR day! :)

Happy Birthday! :party:

Here's something new to know...

Scaramouche was a cynic, a master swordsman, and a prankster in the the Commedia dell' Arte...
