Just for Fun Challenge:

Use "today's word" in a creative sentence.

The behemoth task loomed over the peaceful morning like a hammer ready to fall on our heads.

Today in History:
1865 - The American Dental Association proposed its first code of ethics. Procedures like using a welder’s torch to shrink swollen gums were banned.
1896
- The community of Miami, Florida was incorporated. The city had a population of 260. Today, the area boasts a population of more than 2,000,000.
1900 - The Hamburger was created by Louis Lassing in Connecticut
1914 - The Foxtrot was 1st danced at New Amsterdam Roof Garden (NYC, by Harry Fox)
1933 - The singing telegram was introduced on this day. The first person to receive a singing telegram was singer Rudy Vallee, in honor of his 32nd birthday.


Words of the Day:

behemoth \ bih-HEE-muhth \ , noun;
1. Any creature or thing of monstrous size or power

Today is:
National Milk Chocolate Day
Hamburger Day:
I can do this one It is a five guys day LOL
Wiffle Ball Day
Accountants Day:
It has been accountants month for me.
Fingerprint Day:
I read finger prints are there to help us grip things, and a very small number of people have a genetic trait which prevents them from having finger prints.

Extra Credit Question:

Yes, one time when out kayaking. I was in need, and just as I was considering the "au natural" options one miraculously appeared in the middle of nowhere. Proof that prayers can be answered!

Last thing that has me pulling my hair out?

This house closing, scheduled for this coming Friday. Actually, I am content to leave my hair intact, and pull out -- by the handfuls -- the banker's. If I get another call, asking for something we've already sent, as many as three times already, I do think I'll scream. Loud enough to be heard at his office.

When a form was faxed to us, just yesterday, it dawned on me what part of the problem has been -- so many things have been misspelled! He had our previous street address on some form ALL wrong. It wasn't until I had signed the thing for the second time that it caught my eye, and I corrected it. So then, I had to sign the corrected copy, of course.

Come Friday, I will either need my friends and family to commiserate, if we don't close for some glitch, or to celebrate to a total state of inebriation if we do!

1896 - The community of Miami, Florida was incorporated. The city had a population of 260. Today, the area boasts a population of more than 2,000,000.
1900 - The Hamburger was created by Louis Lassing in Connecticut
1914 - The Foxtrot was 1st danced at New Amsterdam Roof Garden (NYC, by Harry Fox) The hoofer's name was Fox? That's interesting.
1933 - The singing telegram was introduced on this day. The first person to receive a singing telegram was singer Rudy Vallee, in honor of his 32nd birthday. "Winchester Cathedral you're bringing me down....."
