Lots of Veteran's Day posts today, but the main thing I think of on November 11 is a story I read in Cricket Magazine about 25 years ago. The plot involved a guy trying to harvest the legs of some very clever frogs, and his plan was to get them to all jump at the moment winter hit...which was to be November 11, at 11:11 and 11 seconds exactly. They all ended up heads-down in the ice, and he just used a scythe to get their legs and sell 'em to a restaurant.
