Subject: Bulletin Board for November 7

The Bulletin Board is a post made in hopes of slowing the scrolling of the Social Board. It is one place to go and look for any personal messages that might have been posted for us due to the loss of our email address (Email is more appropriate for personal messages). It is a place for us to post the little questions that we may have or tell little anecdotes.

Today is Republican Elephant Day, marking the debut of a cartoon elephant to represent the Republican Party on this date in 1874 in Harper's Weekly..

Today is Sadie Hawkins Day, a day for women and girls to take the initiative and ask a guy for a date. The tradition was established in the "Li'l Abner" comic strip in the 1930s, when Daisy Mae went after Li'l Abner.

Today is National Bittersweet Chocolate with Almonds Day.

Today is 4 Term Day, marking election day in 1944 when Frankin Roosevelt became the first and only person elected to a 4th term as U.S. president. President Roosevelt died only 53 days into his 4th term, and Vice-President Harry Truman assumed the Presidency.

Today is Fala Day in Warm Springs, Georgia, celebrating the memory of FDR's faithful dog Fala. Leashed Scotties are welcome.

Today is October Revolution Day in Russia and Ukraine. A calendar change caused the confusion.

Today is Stay Away from Anyone named Honest John Day.

Today is Solidarity Day in Bangladesh.


See that yellow parachute? Am I too old to do that?
