Lets say thanks by posting patriotic/heroic themed pictures made by you with PDN. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 ...the United States of America(The greatest country,duh). ... As much as I thank the veterans for their service, I do want to point out that this forum has many, many people from other nations here. Let's try not to alienate them. :-) The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies.

Andrew D Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 A poppy is a flower, no? Yup. Used as a rememberance symbol to represent that after a certain battle in WW 1 or 2, only the poppy flower grew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gladi8or2 Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved, and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. — John McCrae I live in Flanders Fields. So I guess veteran day is a good occasion to thank all the American and non-American soldiers that fought here in WW I and II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 *Awesome stuff, as usual* Brad, you're aware that now you've posted this, nobody will post in this thread, fearing to look like ridiculous? No. Way. I've just seen Bob. And... *poof!*—just like that—he disappears into the mist again. ~Helio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taboo Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I appreciate the John McCrae. Nice work. Crikey. For some reason, when I read Void's comment, I was assuming that "poppies," the plural of poppy, referred to all the "fathers" who have fallen, not the flower that sources all opiate derivatives, nor the flower in "Flanders Fields."
