March 11
Tool Lover Day
It’s not the tools
that you have faith in –
tools are just tools.
They work,
or they don’t work.
It’s people
you have faith in or not.
~Steve Jobs
It’s also Fill Your Stapler Day over on our monthly calendar. Am I the only one who thinks a holiday for this is a tad cray-cray? BTW, still saying “cray-cray” because it just seems so silly. Check out all the different Smileys, holidays and quotes on March’s a Month of Smiley Silliness.
Good old Bobby McFerrin (1950) of “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” fame, celebrates his birthday today. I hope it’s a happy one for him. Also celebrating Alex Kingston (1963). I think they are both quite interesting. I think I’ll choose Bobby for mu imagined dinner companion. Don’t you think he’d like Spontaneous Smiley?!
It’s also Dream Day. As my pal Oprah says, “Dream BIG!”
What do Steve Jobs (see today’s quote) and I have in common? We’re both in Personal Branding for Dummies. He’s page 49. I’m page 50 and Mark Zuckerberg is page 51. Cracks me up everytime I think about being mentioned with the “big boys.”
It is also Waffle Day. Waffle Day comes again later this month on 3/25. There’s another thing we celebrate today, that like the waffle, gets the nod twice in this month. It’s the name tag. Both today and 3/5 are Wear a Name Tag Day.
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, the Tool Smiley you get in the Smiley-a-Day emailer is different from what you see here.
