It’s January 28. 
Today is “National Kazoo Day.”  Is there any musical instrument that requires less musical talent than a kazoo?

Trivial Fact of the Day:   Your heart is just about the same size as your fist.  In your life, which of these two body parts packs the more powerful wallop**?

Interesting Quote of the Day:  “Boldness has genius, power and magic in it .”  --Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (German poet)

**Vocabulary Word of the Day:  wallop (noun) – use this fancy word as a synonym for a heavy blow or punch.  Boxing gloves can deliver these, but so can unexpected emotions.  What else (be creative) can cause a wallop?

 

Terrific Tuesday!!
