Peripatetic and OK with it

Totally thought they were talking about 11 November, 2011….

Thought the type looked a “little” old….

Then realized…yowza! They’re talking about the LAST CENTURY. Now trying to figure out WHAT was going on in 1911.

WWI hadn’t happened yet

The Titanic hadn’t happened yet.

The Edwardian Era was only just ended, although perhaps not completely.

No Russian Revolution.

The Chinese Revolution was, however, getting started. Although PuYi apparently didn’t abdicate until Feb of 1912.

Curious times for 11-11-11.

Maybe it’s because I’m a parent, but I think this is awesome.

Thanks, swissmiss.
