Pick Blueberries Day
Q: Why do seagulls fly over the sea?
A: If they flew over the bay
then they would be bagels.
A dumb bagel joke for today’s
Smiley Blueberry Bagel
in honor of Pick Blueberries Day.
It’s also Patio Day over on a calendar of a month full of Smiley Silliness. I found the Smiley you’ll see there at the hospital in the Philippines where I was volunteering with Operation Smile.
Here’s a playful observation: It’s both Be Naked Day and Tape Measurer Day…and yet one is not supposed to say “size matters.” So what’s the tape measurer for?
Today we say happy birthday to Woody Guthrie (1912). If you’re too young to know his music, click here and check him out on good old YouTube.
If we were in France we’d be celebrating Bastille Day by eating garlic in every dish all day. There have been years when we celebrated and you could smell the garlic on us for days!
last year on this day we saw Pluto via NASA’s New Horizons interplanetary probe as it whizzed by after almost 10 years traveling to get there! WooHoo, take look at Pluto!
BTW, the Smileys and holidays on a month full of Smiley Silliness are all different than the ones you see here on the website’s Daily Smiley.
Plus as is often the case, just for grins, you get a different Blueberry Smiley in the Smiley-a-Day emailer.
