TODAY IS YO YO DAY

Yo-yos may be the world's oldest toys. 3,000 year old stone yo-yos have been found in Greece, and ivory yo-yos were made in China about 1000 B.C. Popular with the French royal court and in Victorian England, they came to the U.S. with the emigrants. Three presidents (Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon) publicly displayed their skill - and in 1992, a yo-yo went into space with astronaut Jeffry Hoffman on the space shuttle Atlantis.

I assure you that you will be absolutely astonished at the amount of culture you will acquire.

TODAY’S REFLECTION

So he went to her, took her hand and helped her up.

Mark 1:31

The Lord touches our coffins of sorrows, excuses, doubts, hostilities and disabilities; whatever is burying our hearts and minds under a worldly heap. He implores us to rise and explore the possibilities, for He has destroyed impossibilities.

He lifts the weak, the ignorant, the humble, the poor and the fearful; He lifts us all.

From Daily Miscellany
