Your “Very Lazily, Hastily And Poorly Conceived” Early Daytime Tuesday Open Thread

Nothing on the docket today so far so I’m gonna push this in.  Talk about whatever you want.  Heck, you will anyway, LOL.

Speaking of Tuesday, this is Tuesday Weld.

Not too shabby, huh?

Did you know that the NYSE crashed on a Tuesday?  Black Tuesday they call it.  October 29, 1929 if my memory is correct.  No, I’m not looking it up.

Did you know that In the Nahuatl language, Tuesday is Huītzilōpōchtōnal (Nahuatl pronunciation: [wiːt͡siloːpoːt͡ʃˈtoːnaɬ]) meaning “day of Huitzilopochtli”.   I didn’t.  And frankly don’t care.

In Greek and Roman mythology, Mars (or Ares) is the War God, and so, people born on Tuesdays come with a fiery, fighting spirit. These folks are brave, impatient, energetic, active, and driven to succeed, sometimes to a fault. Or, as the nursery rhyme goes, they’re “full of grace.” The rhyme may be a tad reductive, come to think of it.

Tuesdays saw the highest number of deaths from the flu and pneumonia — 134,567 — though Wednesdays came in a very close second, with a total of 134,525 deaths from these diseases.

Tuesday is the day of the week that is least likely to have a Christmas Eve on it

Interestingly enough, Tuesday is the day of the week that has the second-highest chance of having a Christmas on it, with the first being Thursday.

In the Eastern Orthodox Church, Tuesdays are dedicated to Saint John the Baptist.  So be sure to keep your head today. (Get it?)

And of course Tuesdays are tradition for election days.  And we all know how that’s worked out recently.

Anywhooooo….

Hopefully BC Dick  will give you something more interesting to read in a few hours.  But I have it on good authority he can’t figure out Canadeean postal rates.  Either that or he just wanted to keep all the weed for himself.

Either way, knock yourselves out in the komments as always.
