It going to be important to lay some foundation concerning 9-11 before we move forward. Most of us, especially here in the United States, exclusively think of the attacks on the Twin Towers when 9/11 is brought to mind, but what if i were to tell you there are two 9/11's? Oh you don't know about the other 9/11? Try November 9th. Here in the U.S. we would see this as 11/9, but across the pond (and practically everywhere else in the world) November 9th is seen as 9/11. Anything important happen on this day anywhere that might see this as 9/11? Well, what if i told you practically every important event in Germany history over the course of the 20th century occurred on November 9th? That would be weird right? Well it just happens to be true. Lets make a list: Oh wait there's already one made for us But just to hit a few of the highlights: 1918 Kaiser Wilhelm II was forced to abdicate, ending Germany's monarchy, leading to the shortly lived Weimar Rep...
I REALLY wish i would have sent Richard a less douchy picture. But all the same i am so glad he gave me an opportunity to talk all things back to the future.
