A Celebration of the National Tooth Fairy Day...

The tooth fairy is a myth that can be traced back to the culture of the Americans and the Europeans. This character is said to be filled with magical mystery and generosity. Children all over the world believe that the tooth fairy gives coins and money in exchange for their milk teeth after it has fallen off. Children put their baby teeth in a tooth box and place them underneath their pillows at night and the next day would find money or a gift in exchange for the teeth. Even if a child loses his teeth without putting it underneath his pillow, it is believed that the tooth fairy magically knows and will still leave a gift for him at night.

The inventor of the telephone was born March 3rd, 1847 at Edlinburgh, Scotland. Bell's father, Melville taught the deaf, using visual devices to instruct articulation. These tools inspired in part the vibrating membrane used in the telephone. The first electrically transmitted voice was that of Bell speaking to his assistant, March 10, 1876. " Mr. Watson, come here, I want you."

Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch

If you control the spring, you can control the way the river flows.  I believe that this describes media mogul Rupert Murdoch.  I doubt very much that you haven’t heard about him before.  A furor resulted when he divorced his second wife of 30 years to marry his current wife who is approximately 40 years his junior; this made a lot of noise at that time that you couldn’t have failed to notice.  If you still don’t know who he is, then you’d better do so because this man is running a media network that is so vast that it’s more than likely influencing your thoughts, feelings and activities.  He is even the owner of your favorite social networking site, MySpace.com.

A holiday of Irish traditions, St. Patrick's Day is celebrated worldwide by Irish and those who are "Irish for a day" on March 17th. There are parades, wearin o' the green, and tales of St Patrick, the shamrock and the Blarney Stone.

 

March 22nd is an unofficial day for goofing off worldwide.  A special day for relaxation, goofiness and good humor.  An early spring excuse for golf, fishing, roller skating, sitting under a tree and contemplating reality, or just being a bit silly at work; whatever you enjoy doing.
