WTF - Destiny Day

WTF it's wednesday again... And it's wednesday November 9th, sometimes called the "Schicksalstag" (Destiny Day) of Germany. It is kinda fascinating how many significant events happened on that day. In a short television piece I saw on Sunday they mentioned a theory that since so many significant, historical things happened to Germany on this day, the fall of the Berlin Wall on that date was not just coincidence but subconciously placed on there. WTF?!? Seriously? Anyhoo, I shudder to think what it says about our national psyche that our destiny day is in November, the generally most uncomfortable and depressing month of the year. (The current year seems to be a nice abberation.)
