+Team kizb Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) Apollo 11 was the first manned spacecraft to land on the Moon. 9/11, the day the world changed. November 11th 1889 – Washington is admitted as the 42nd U.S. state.

+goosefraba1 Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 (edited) How's about making a wish.... there is a saying that if you make a wish at 11:11 it will come true. so.... if you make a wish at 11:11 and 11 seconds on 11-11-11 .... then it has to come true.... or else I no longer believe.

+somegeek Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 The eleventh hour "turn it up to eleven" haha... "but this coin goes to 11..." Quote
+opalsns Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 Yup, Yup...LOL.... This One Goes Up To Eleven!!!! Ever Lovin' Eleven Quote
+Ruud4d Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 In Dutch eleven is "elf". And an "elf" is a fairy. 11 is the first number you can't count one your fingers. If you do, you've got one left, which brings us to the (German) source of the word eleven: ain lif (one left). 11 is the first Master Number in numerology Quote
+DresselDragons Posted October 11, 2010 Posted October 11, 2010 The Great Blue Norther of 11/11/11 was a cold snap that affected the central United States on Saturday, November 11, 1911...hope we don't have a repeat of that next year. Quote

+avroair Posted October 11, 2010 Author Posted October 11, 2010 The eleventh hour "turn it up to eleven" Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. Where can you go from there? Where? Eleven. Exactly. One louder. Quote
+DresselDragons Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 - Apollo 11 was the first manned spacecraft to land on the moon - 11 is the number of guns in a gun salute to U.S. Army, Air Force and Marine Corps Brigadier Generals, and to Navy and Coast Guard Rear Admirals Lower Half - The Canadian one-dollar coin is a hendecagon, an eleven-sided polygon. - In chemistry, Group 11 includes the three coinage metals copper, silver, and gold Quote

+ECplus3 Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 - The Canadian one-dollar coin is a hendecagon, an eleven-sided polygon. And another tie-in with cachers and coin collectors alike, it is called the 'loonie'. Quote

+luckycharmer Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 In the game of blackjack, an Ace can be counted as either one or ELEVEN, whichever is more advantageous for the player. Quote
+kini_ont Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Eleven bring the gift of spiritual inheritance, is gifted as the "Light-Bearer". It is the number of the Light within all. Strengthened by the love of Peace, gentleness, sensitivity and insight. Greatest facility is the awareness of Universal relationship. Is related to the energy of Oppositions and the Balancing needed in order to achieve synthesis. Eleven is The PeaceMaker Quote
+River Cacher Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Elvensies? Tea time! The Eleven, by the Grateful Dead eleventh scale in music armistice Anything else? I love the Music idea for the theme. The Dead would have all kinds desigs to make this amazing. Quote
+DragonsWest Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Elvensies? Tea time! The Eleven, by the Grateful Dead eleventh scale in music armistice Anything else? I think a red poppy should figure in the design in some way. The eleventh day of the eleventh month is a solemn occasion - perhaps a coin design which promotes Peace. Quote
+DresselDragons Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Yesterday the tv news came to the flash mob event and he said he would see us next year on 11-11-11 which happens to be Veterans Day. Perhaps something patriotic? I would prefer it not be patriotic, celebrating Veteran's Day, only because Veteran's Day is a US holiday. This is an international multi-event. I think a Veteran's Day version would be more appropriate than a Veteran's Day design. However, a design honoring the signing of the Armistice that ended the World War would probably work. Quote

Agreed, it has to have world wide appeal, that is not to say we would not get it downunder.. we are not savages sitting in the dirt poking berries up our noses Ok there was that one time, but it was my 21st. Australia In Australia Remembrance Day is always observed on 11 November, although the day is not a public holiday. Services are held at 11am at war memorials and schools in suburbs and towns across the country, at which "Last Post" is sounded by a bugler and a one-minute silence is observed. In recent decades, however, Remembrance Day has been partly eclipsed by ANZAC Day (25 April) as the national day of war commemoration. Quote
+Zelanzy Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Too bad 11 in binary isn't 1111...its 1011 Quote
+DragonsWest Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 Last night I started working on an 11-11-11 design, mostly for the exercise of it, but was quickly sidetracked by the rescue of the miners. Ole Chile! Ole! Quote

+drneal Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 From Wikipedia, The eleventh hour is a colloquial expression meaning "a time which is nearly too late". A time to reflect ILYK Quote

+redwingrr Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 How about a proposal for the day… eleven eleven eleven find 11, trade 11, meet eleven Meaning: find 11 caches, trade, discover and/or buy 11 coins, meet eleven cachers … or something like that? Quote
+goosefraba1 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 What about that Pearl Jam song "once" ..... only use the homophone "ones" in place of that... okay my attempt at humor for the day. Actually was funny to me until I saw it typed out :/ Quote
+goosefraba1 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Or metallica "one".... didn't even think of that song. Quote
+redwingrr Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Trying to flesh out my previous idea… This is lame as I've written it , but I like the basic idea, so maybe you can make something out of it… ----------------------------- 11 Events on 11.11.11 11 caches, 11 coins, 11 friends Elevannouncing eleven elevunprecedented, elevunreal events! Each will offer eleven previously elevunpublished caches. Eleven elevunparalleled new coins will be available. Elevunquestionably, major fun will be had. Elevunbridle your enthusiasm for elevunending fun! To make 11.11.11 a day to remember... Find eleven caches, Discover, move, trade and/or buy eleven coins, and Meet eleven caching friends, new or old. No penalties for overshooting the targets! ------------------------------ So, there'd be 11 versions of a coin on the theme and 11 events, each offering 11 new caches. It seems very do-able since people can discover coins at the events if they aren't into collecting/trading and, of course, they can meet other cachers there. Quote
+Fiery Searcher Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 11: the cacher's dozen hmmmm Was trying to play of two other dozens: 12, the world's dozen, and 13, a baker's dozen If anything, cachers would want 14 to be their dozen, because it's all about the numbers, right? Quote
+GATOULIS Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 what came in my mind... was the OCEAN'S 11 movie! and you can have the 12, 13.... Maybe you can change it into CACHER'S 11.... and the event name to be the meeting of the Ocean's 11.... If the place of the event will be near the ocean....WOW! Quote
+ECplus3 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I love it Gatoulis!! And yes, if I am able to host an event this year, it will be by the ocean. Quote
+fatkidsOTWunite Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I'm in. Can't wait to see some designs. Janet Quote
+goosefraba1 Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I love it Gatoulis!! And yes, if I am able to host an event this year, it will be by the ocean. Is the person top right holding a GPSr? Quote
+redwingrr Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I didn't see the movie so ? But I'm prolly the only one. More 11 stuff... probably not useful for a coin but here it is anyway: Eleven days that never were. The British Calendar Act of 1751, declared that the day after Wednesday, Sept 2nd, 1752, would be Thursday, Sept 14th. Eleven days vanished… POOF! From wikipedia: "It has been reported in some history books that a number of the public rioted after the calendar change, requesting that their "eleven days" be returned." There's even a painting entitled "Give us our Eleven Days". Quote
+avroair Posted March 11, 2011 Author Posted March 11, 2011 In chemistry, Group 11 includes the three coinage metals copper, silver, and gold known from antiquity. It also includes the superheavy element roentgenium, which was discovered only recently! Sounds like an AE to me! Quote
