## February 22nd…Be Humble day. Of all the lousy luck. I think I’m gonna start the petition to change this to National Bitching Day. Now THAT would be something worth remembering. “I love being married. It’s so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life.” ---

Hmmmm. Richter Scale Day and National Pretzel Day. Now there’s a combination that’s hard to observe. Howabout a hot tub, a muscle-bound Italian life guard, plenty of good wine, some pretzels (yuck) and wait for the earth to move… Nah, doesn’t sound too likely. Veb ---

I was born on Feb 14th, which seems to have some other significance as well. On a random note, I saw that Feb 11th was White Tee-shirt Day and Don’t Cry Over Spilled Milk Day.
