"I try to let the river flow in and out of me..."

Yah.  Name that band!

Hey homies, today's work report: Not as tiring as yesterday, but much more boring.  They put me back on order selection.  I could do shipping all day, but I'd rather not stuff the boxes.  Just stack 'em.

And today's weather report:  Right now it's 6:00pm and it's 98 degrees out there.  And always, there is no humidity.  It's a nosebleeder's worst nightmare.

Today is Pink Day, like I said yesterday, but I learned this morning that it is also Let It Go Day.  If something is bothering you, let it go.  And it was something else, but I forgot, and can't find it right now.  Meh.

Happy Birthday to:
Matthijs Siegenbeek, 1774 (he studied spelling.  how cool is that!)
Kari Takko, 1969
Felix Potvin, 1971
My little sister Julie (she's older, but she's so small and cute!)

Happy croaking day:
Ho-tse Shen-hui, 758
Franz de Backer, 1961
Jonas Salk, 1995 (WHAT AN AWESOME GUY!)
Betty Shabazz, 1997 (she's the widow of Malcolm X.  What do yous think of him?)

On this day:
World's oldest parliament, the Iceland Parliament, is established, 930
Henry Hudson set adrift in Hudson Bay by mutineers on his ship Discovery and is never seen again, 1611
1st US balloon flight (13 year old Edward Warren), 1784
Antoine Joseph Sax patents Saxophone, 1848 (one site I went to said that today was his birthday, but that is absolutely false.  He was born on November 6, my brother Andy's birthday!)
Frederick Douglass nominated for president, 1888 (first black nominee!)
Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Assn (UNIA) incorporates, 1919
12 women graduate from Harvard Medical School, 1949 (the first women to do so)

Hope you enjoy that.  If it doesnt work for some reason, just let me know somehow and i'll fix the problem.

Words of the day!
bromhidrosis: the secretion of foul smelling sweat
Check out this site!
delectation: great pleasure, delight, enjoyment

That's all I'm allowed to do today.  Dinner time, then off to participate as assistant scoutmaster.  I've only been such since Sunday, and tonight is my first chance to do something, I'll let yous know how it goes.  Later all.
Brian
