***THE OFFICIAL FRIDAY SILLINESS THREAD***
Posted on 06/26/2015 6:13:15 AM PDT by Lucky9teen
Feeling Silly Today?
Or, are you feeling out of sorts and just need a dose?
Here is what is on the agenda for today - June 26th:
Beautician's Day
Beautician's Day is your chance to show your appreciation to those who make you look beautiful and stunning.
Beauticians include your hair stylist, as well as manicurists. Their talents and training transforms the everyday you into the beautiful woman you always knew was inside of you. They make you glow, and feel great about yourself. The guys appreciate your Beautician, too. Proof positive is when they turn to watch as you go by.
It's fair and fitting that you show your appreciation to your Beautician today. But, we also found some reference to suggest that Beauticians consider this a day for them to show their appreciation to their patrons. Now, that's a novel and admirable concept.
Take Your Dog to Work Day
Today is Take Your Dog to Work Day. And, we've just gotta ask "Why!?"
They say every dog has it's day. Well, that day has arrived. Today, your dog gets to join you at work today. Of course, this assumes that your (wonderful) boss will allow it.
Once he arrives at work, your dog can tag along, following you on all of your work chores. He'll be at your side all day long. He'll frown at those dog eared papers n your desk. He'll end the day happy, but dog-tired.
Now, that' we've had our chuckle, it's time to recognize that this is a serious holiday for "Man's Best Friend". It is sponsored by Pet Sitters International. The objective is to recognize the importance of dogs in our lives as both companions and protectors. The organization also encourages you to help homeless dogs. One way to do so, is to adopt a dog today!
Question for the day: Once your dog has arrived at your work...now what? What do you do with him? Will there be organized activities and a luncheon in his honor!?
Sorry, but equal rights has yet to arrive in the pet world. We have not found a "Take Your Cat to Work Day", or a "Take Your Parakeet to Work Day", or .............
The Origin of Take Your Dog to Work Day:
This very special day for you and your dog was created in 1999 by Pet Sitters International.
It was created to recognize dogs as great companions, and to encourage adoptions of dogs.
Forgiveness Day
Forgiveness Day is a time to forgive and to be forgiven. The world will be a better place for this day.
In religions:
** The Jewish celebration of Yom Kippur is a day of atonement or forgiving.
** In Christian religions,the first Sunday before Lent is called "Forgiveness Sunday".
Quote of the Day: To err is human, to forgive is divine.

Saw a bumper sticker last week that read “Jesus loves you, but I’m His favorite.”
I’ve always wanted one with the “Smile, God loves you” and underneath that “Everyone else thinks you’re an idiot.” Never did get it, because I couldn’t justify how that would look on my car parked in a church parking lot... But I still want one.
