Today is National Handwriting Day, to encourage more people
to write clearly and legibly. Celebrated every year on John Hancock's birthday.
You know, Shannon has terrible handwriting. His parents must have thought
it would increase his chances of becoming a doctor <pa-rum-pum!>.
Today is One-Tooth Rhee Landing Day, honoring the Korean

And it's National Activity Professionals Day, National Pie Day,
