It’s February 25. 
Today is “National Clam Chowder Day.” 
Anyone ever told you to “clam up?”  Know what that means?
Trivial Fact of the Day:   The clam is a burrowing marine mollusk living in sand or mud. The largest clam ever recorded was found in 1956; it weighed 750 pounds.
Interesting Quote of the Day:  Something had to start the process of brain expansion, and I think it was early humans eating clams, frogs, bird eggs, and fish from shoreline environments.”  --Stephen Cunnane (Canadian scientist and researcher)
Vocabulary Word of the Day:  indefatigable (adjective) – describe a noun that’s hard to defeat with this word. Know anyone famous who’s indefatigable?
