11th of February Day Of Sadness Coincidences

 What's with that day, 11th Feb? Whitney Houston, Alexander McQueen and Sylvia Plath all had unfortunate demises on that day......a friend jumped from a 12th story high-rise on that day. in the early '70's......one of my oldest friends, Guy Bishop, died on that day.........Roger Vadim and Henry Hathaway, the great directors, also kicked the bucket on that day.........To me.....that day is "The Day Of Sadness".......My Mother received her multiple myeloma diagnosis on that day.....In 1956, I was in a terrible bicycle accident...yeah.....on 11 Feb.......and drove a car off a cliff...not intentionally.....on 11 Feb. of 1960, sliding from the icy pavement as our new DeSoto sedan bit the dust......
