For Veterans Day, I would ask you to join me in a new tradition - TopicsExpress



          

For Veterans Day, I would ask you to join me in a new tradition that would not have been possible in 1911, as they had no internet. Please understand, Granddad raised me to respect tradition, so, if you have 11 gunners with 11 guns and can safely and legally fire the traditional 11-gun salute at 11:11, your time, please, for me, and for Willie McBride and every one of his brothers and sisters, continue it... Carry on until the stars burn out, if you possibly can. We salute you. For the rest of us without armed, standing militias at our disposal, please, instead, at 11:11 am your time, play this... (It really is safe for work. I promise.) Its also perfectly OK to cry. I sob like Im mourning my own family, and I dont even know why, every time I hear it. (Damn you, DROPKICK MURPHYS, and your soul-wrenching Irish talent for music! Youre supposed to be an spit-nails and take it to the wall Celtic Punk band! How dare you convey the real power and deep historical context of this song!) Know that I will play it, too, at the Same Time... I will be also be crying, too. ...but if you have that private militia, pm me. We really need to talk.
