6.30.14


Good morning Phoenix! Mat has been Marked! Do you have your copy yet? Please, no spoilers till most everyone has had a chance to read his story. On to the last of the wedding trivia for the last day of June:
More than 40% of couples now plan their weddings together, and three out of four grooms help select items for their wedding gift registries.
Seventy-five percent of engaged couples in the United States pay for some or all of their own wedding.
“Matrimony” is from the Latin matrimonium, from matrem (“mother”) + monium (“action, state, condition”).
Joke of the Day:
A man and his wife shower together. The husband puts his hand on her breast and says, "These are nice, but if they were a bit firmer you could walk around without a bra for me."
Then the husband pats her butt and says, "This is nice, but if it was a bit firmer, you could walk around without panties for me."
The wife turns around to her husband, grabs his groin and says, "This is nice, but if it was a little bigger, I wouldn't need your brother."
Quote of the Day:
Everyone wants your happiness. Don't let them take it.
Random Daily Factoid:
Medical studies show that intelligent people have more copper and zinc in their hair.
Great Place for a Getaway:
Nantucket Island, Massachusetts
A visit to this New England gem truly does seem like a visit to a faraway fairytale land - one set against a bright blue backdrop of ocean and bay in a community of simple, weathered white cottages surrounded by wild roses. Small neighborhoods make up Nantucket, each one with a personality all its own. The historic district is the center of the island, with its cobblestone streets, harbor and truly amazing architecture. There are fewer stores across the island, allowing neighborhoods from Siasconset to Madaket to retain their small village appeal, so for real shopping, stick to Nantucket Town.
And as for the beaches, there seems to be at least one that meets most everyone's needs and preferences. Madaket Beach is known for its rougher surf and not-to-be-missed sunsets. For those seeking a remote beach, bike ride to Quidnet Beach and take in the view of Sankaty Head lighthouse. Or pack a gourmet lunch and ride to Siasconset Beach - the waves get pretty rough, but the atmosphere is reminiscent of something from Wuthering Heights. For more activity, explore one of the many bike trails that snake around less populated areas of the island. Charter a boat for a day of fishing. Rent a sea kayak and explore the coast. Or stay on land and explore the cranberry bogs or bird-watching high points.
Have a fangtastic day and enjoy reading about Mat's new mate, Nova!
