It’s November 4. 
Today is “National Use Your Common Sense Day.”  How might you help a good friend celebrate common sense today?

Trivial Fact of the Day:   There are three colors of blood: red, blue (lobsters) and yellow (insects).
Interesting Quote of the Day:  “A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial** appearance of being right.”  --Thomas Paine  (English-American Author and Activist)
**Vocabulary Word of the Day:  superficial (adjective) – Use this word to describe something shallow (but not water!) or close to the surface.  Like a superficial thought, or superficial damage, or superficial ________?

Happy Monday!!!
