For those who may be wondering why I posted this a full week early....

Canadians are well aware of the observation of 11-11-11-11.

(Eleventh day of the 11th month @ 11 minutes past the 11th hour)

Surveys show that most Americans think we observe Veteran's Day, which we
do not. Our's is somewhat different.

A good friend lost his father /today/ -- one week before -- and another on
Wednesday.

After a grueling week of medical tests, I will be away from either the 8th
or 9th until the 12th or 13th; most likely my computer and/or monitor will
be in the shop during my absence. In any case I will not be able to post
at the proper time.

I trust this will explain why this is being posted today.

Thank you.

Uhhh...who are you, and what exactly does this link have to do with SW's
medical problems?


He's a mainstay next door in ABPAviation, and the link is referring to
Remembrance Day (see Max's comment about the silent moment).

In my post I only mentioned the medical stuff as a bit of explanation as
to why I was posting the photo a week early, but the kind wishes were a
very nice little bonus.....
