It's a bird, it's a plan, no it's some idiot jumping out of a plane.

...Kidding at least about the idiot part. Today is the day that Parachutes were invented! Well years ago, but you get my drift. I still have yet to jump out of a plane, though it's on my bucket list so no worries. There's some niftly little facts below, along with a link to the history of the parachute if that kinda thing floats your boat.

Hi, My Name Is...What, My Name Is...



Today is National make a friend day. Now, I don’t want to get all mushy on you guys, but today is one of those days where you should go out of your way to be friendly. Yes, that’s something you should probably do every day, but hey sometimes we need an excuse to let that super sunny person who lives inside the dark recess of our personality, come out and play.

It’s Umbrella Day.
