Default ANZAC DAY - 04-24-2006, 01:30 PM

Yup, it's that time of the year again...I'm sure most of you know what this is about, but for those who don't:

[url:e6081]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANZAC_Day[/url:e6081]

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We Will Remember Them.

In Flanders Fields

by Major John McCrae

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.

It's like aa.com with more gay jokes.
