Veterans Day is one of 10 federally recognized holidays, which I think should be recognized more often. The day also has a unique date in itself with and at some point today it will be 11:11:11 on 11/11/11.
Brides are rushing to Las Vegas to make it a wedding day to remember. Numerology experts are making note of its palindromic sensibilities. Hollywood is unleashing a horror film, “11-11-11,” reinforcing some suspicions that the proliferation of elevens has a dark side.
But you can commemorate the day in a different fashion, if you choose.
You can look past all the “11″ hoopla at 11 a.m. today and pause for a moment or two to express gratitude for all U.S. servicemen and women, past and present.
Locally a new store is opening in Bellevue today called your Your Local Market. At precisely 11:11 a.m. today, Bellevue shoppers got the grocery store they’ve been waiting for.
