National Chili Day
February 25th, 2012
How do you like your chili? Without beans like the Texans? Con carne, turkey or vegetarian? Perhaps you'd like it mixed into your chocolate dessert. Any way you like it, dig in to that spicy bowl of heaven today, friends. We'll keep a glass of water handy for you.
National Chocolate Covered Nuts Day
February 25th, 2012
A protein-packed part of your daily diet just got more awesome! Douse your almonds, filberts, or cashews with cocoa and you'd have to be nuts to eat anything else today.
Nobody say anything gross about the last one.
National Pistol Patent Day
February 25th, 2012
There probably isn't a long line for pistol patentees at the patent office anymore, not since Samuel Colt and his infamous multi-chamber gun in 1936. So thanks. Mr. Colt, for giving the world another word that just keeps sounding funnier the more we say it. Pistol. Pistol. Pistol.

Then why do all the packages of fortune cookies say "Made in China?"

There is a Johnny's in Natchitoches now. The manager there is a super nice guy. They make delicious pizza.
What he said.
Yep.....nearly everything we buy is made in China. If they went to war with us...we would have to start making our own stuff and they would have no one to buy their cheap crap.
They said the same thing about Japan in the 1960s and 70s. But the big difference is Mitsubishi, Sony, Nissan/Datsun, Toyota, Panasonic, et al were not making things to compete against Boeing, Lockheed, Northrop-Grumman! China is!
That is what is scary.
I found some New Balance that was Made in USA - may contain imported materials
Amen brother! I work for DoD and am quite aware of it...
We can't use a flash/thumb drive on any computer period or any non approved external device because of the "made in China" factor for obvious reasons.
Yep! A real pain in the neck.
