Date When Celebrated : Always February 10
Umbrella Day is in honor of one of the world's most invaluable inventions. On a rainy, day, we are sure glad that someone was smart enough to invent it. It's also increasingly popular to use umbrellas to shade ourselves from harmful UV radiation, and the heat of the sun.
Umbrellas come in all sorts of sizes, colors, shapes, and, designs. Businesses and organizations use them for advertising. The smallest umbrellas fit inside a purse or glove compartment. Golf umbrellas are popular sizes. Then, there are lawn and beach umbrellas. There's one (or two) made just for you.
Celebrate Umbrella Day in a couple of ways. First, make sure your umbrella is handy. Second, use it, or walk around with it. If you don't have an umbrella, isn't it time to get one?
Based on the curvature of the earth, the sun lights the umbrella from the back and is allowed to mark the approximate time.
IN!!!

I KNOW I am late, but I had to shovel a path so my poor dog could do her business outside.

Thank you for another OFST! I appreciate your time and effort!!
Meh..
Well. I’m finally in. I see you went ahead and started without me! Now I have a lot of laughs to read!
So says the only Star Trek Red Shirt that lived...!
If a man sleeps with a lot of women, he gets called a stud. If a woman sleeps with a lot of men, she gets called a lot.
Eye.Watch.Cape.Horn.
Repeat these words faster and faster.

The teacher asks the class if 3 birds are sitting on a wire, and a hunter shoots one, how many are left?
Little Johnny blurts out “None!, they’ll all fly away when they hear the shot!”
The teacher pauses, and says, “Well, that’s not the answer I was looking for, but I like the way you think Little Johnny”.
Little Johnny replies, “My hand is in my pocket, and I feel something round and hard with a head on it”. What is it?
The teacher turns red and says, “Johnny, we don’t talk about those things in school”.
Little Johnny pulls out his hand and says, “It’s just a Quarter!” but I like the way you think!
Surround yourself with people who have issues.
People with issues always have alcohol.

Why Some Parents Turn To Drink
The boss wondered why one of his most valued employees was absent but had not phoned in sick. So he dialed the employee’s home phone number and was greeted with a child’s whisper.
“Hello?”
“Is your daddy home?”
Small voice whispered, “Yes, he’s out in the garden,”
“May I talk with him?”
The child whispered, “No.”
So the boss asked, “Well, is your Mommy there?”
“Yes, she’s out in the garden too.”
The boss asked; “May I talk with her?”
Again the No.
Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, “Is anybody else there?”
“Yes”, whispered the child, “a policeman.”
Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee’s home, the boss asked, “May I speak with the policeman?”
“No, He’s busy,” whispered the child.
“Busy doing what?”
“Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the police dog men.”
Growing more worried as he heard a loud noise in the background, the boss asked, “What is that noise?”
“It’s a helicopter” answered the whispering voice.
“What is going on there?” demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.
“The search team just landed a helicopter.”
“A search team?” said the boss “What are they searching for?”
Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle...
“ME”
