Some links.
11 November 2009 01:44 pmJust various things I've come across the last few days, most of which have brought tears to my eyes. Thought I'd share.
Article about prisoners who train dogs for vets.
Photos from the memorial service for the victims of the November 5 shootings at Fort Hood.
Captured Photo Collection. Ian Fisher: American Soldier. (This is how an American soldier is made. For 27 months, Ian Fisher, his parents and friends, and the U.S. Army allowed Denver Post reporters and a photographer to watch and chronicle his recruitment, induction, training, deployment, and, finally, his return from combat.)

lilachigh posted photos of the British Legion Garden of Remembrance.
Jack centric vid: The Price of Commanding. (Jack Harkness has had a hundred years in which to learn the price of command. Angst, major spoilers for Children of Earth.) The song is one of the most haunting and achingly truthful I've ever heard.

Birthdays!!!
11 November 2009 10:36 pmHappy Happy Birthday beer_good_foamy and skipthedemon! Hope you've both had a FABULOUS day!!!!
(Am feeling cheerful right now, since I've just watched an old episode of HIGNFY, hosted by Tom Baker. His introduction? "Hello. I used to be Jon Pertwee!" :) Lots of fabulous lines, although my favourite might be when he was showing off his 4th Doctor doll ("Interchangeable heads!" One *with* hat, one without, in case you're wondering) and said: "And if you don't like your Tom Baker doll, just wait until it turns into a Sylvester McCoy doll, and see how much you hate it then!" ::dies:: Paul Merton was quite surprised, never having considered the fact that the different Doctors might bitch about each other! *g* Oh! And I watched DT on Graham Norton earlier on today - thank goodness for re-play! - and laughed and laughed. Also, God bless Johnny Vegas! Anyway, shouldn't be here! *runs away again*)
