Many Reasons

Many thanks

Anonymous said...: A poignant tribute.

I realized, back in the States, that we don't wear poppies like we used to do. In Scotland, they appeared several days before 11/11 and everyone wore them for more than just the day.

I don't know what has happened to the tradition here in the Northeast
but it's a sad loss.; 5:05 AM

Many thanks indeed, and thanks to you for the reminder.; 7:59 AM
Brit & Grit said...: Thanks tomcat. Being named after a famous plane, I would expect you to respect our troops. I can't recall if anything is on our topic list about Iraq, but it's liable to crop up on our Conversations blog at any time.

Glad you liked your visit; come back any time,

Thanks Grit. But since I was TomCat, before the F-14 existed, perhaps they named it after me. ;-); 7:52 AM
Brit & Grit said...: That's a much better theory than I heard once at a party. One trophy wife was totally convinced that the plane was named after Tom Cruse. Fortunately my wife drug me into another room before I could break into the conversation.

Keep your wings level,
