Tomorrow we have two food holidays. Tomorrow is ' National Pickle Day'.
[The Hankster says] I would call them a favorite snack, but when I start eating them, I can't stop. I guess that makes them a major food group. Tomorrow is also 'National Spicy Guacamole Day'. Some Guacamole with pickled Jalapenos?
Tomorrow will be 'Loosen Up, Lighten Up Day'. A day to get the better of stress.
Tomorrow is 'International Girls Day'. The slogan for the day is: 'She can do anything.' If you think not, see the item for Nellie Bly (, below.
Tomorrow is 'National American Teddy Bear Day'.
[The Hankster says] What another one? I mentioned a few days ago that the Teddy Bear Union must be a strong one. This time they stuck the word, American, in and got another day out of it. Do they know the Teddy Bear was named after an American president in the first place? I may ask my financial consultant to look into some plush toy stock. I don't think we have even come to W. Pooh's birthday yet.
Now, read the next one all the way through before you get panicky. 'Spirit of NSA (National Speakers Association) Day'.
[The Hankster says] See, wrong NSA. Privacy notice: I do not save any of your personal information. That is only because no one will pay me for it. (Oops, Note to self. Remove that last statement, before posting.)
We have two awareness days tomorrow. 'Operating Room Nurse Day' and
'World Diabetes Day'.
Edward Fitzgerald once said
'Whether we wake or we sleep,
Whether we carol or weep,
The Sun with his Planets in chime,
Marketh the going of Time.'
[The Hankster says] If time is not ours to mold or regulate, perhaps we can master it by learning from it. Let's see what we can learn from November 14 in the past.
In 1832, The first street car to be used in US, a horse drawn vehicle named 'John Mason) has it's first trip in New York City. The fare was 12 cents.
In 1889, Female journalist Nellie Bly (Elizabeth Cochrane), starts her journey to go around the world in 80 days. She makes it in 72 days, 6 hours. It is said that she did get to meet Jules Vern.

November is:
November origin (from Wikipedia): 'November is the eleventh month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian
Calendars and one of four months with the length of 30 days. November was
the ninth month of the ancient Roman calendar. November retained its name
(from the Latin novem meaning 'nine') when January and February were added
to the Roman calendar.
'
'November is a month of spring in the Southern Hemisphere and autumn in
the Northern Hemisphere. Therefore, November in the Southern Hemisphere
is the seasonal equivalent of May in the Northern Hemisphere and vice
versa.'

If you couldn't afford 90 cents for a movie ticket, 50 years ago,
or your 45 RPM record player was broke, you might watch one of these shows on TV.
