Good morning Phoenix! How's everyone today? Enjoying this fine Sunday, I hope. On to the history lesson for today:
On this day in:
1456 - Twenty-five years after her execution, Pope Calixtus III annulled the heresy charges brought against Joan of Arc.
1898 - The United States annexed Hawaii.
1981 - President Ronald Reagan nominated Sandra Day O'Connor for the Supreme Court.
Trivia for today - let's honor National Chocolate day, so here's some chocolate trivia:
The stage blood in the black and white Hitchcock thriller "Psycho" was really chocolate syrup.
Many of us believed an old myth that chocolate causes acne. The good news for teenagers everywhere is that modern research shows that's just not true. The only effect of chocolate on your face is to induce a smile.
Romantics promote the legend that chocolate is a love chemical. You know, one of those mysterious substances that encourage, um, you know what. So is it true? Well, partially yes and no. While chocolate has no proven ability to directly arouse passions, it certainly does lift one's spirits which can lead to the same result. It is associated with kindness, generosity, and closeness, it smells heavenly, and it even melts in the mouth sensuously. If you're looking for a love potion, this is probably your best bet. *hands Jenna a large box of chocolates*
Everyone have a wonderful Breed day!
