You may have been expecting a “Happy Labor Day” wish. Rain is in the forecast here in the northeast. So, yours truly turned to National Today for additional things that are going on today and this week. Bob Newhart turns 92 today. Now that he’s taken the torch once held by Betty White by remaining active in his 10th decade, why not devote part of My HOH?
There’s a bit more home office relevancy to Bob’s birthday than you might think. Newhart still performs standup, in addition to appearing as a guest on numerous talk shows. During Covid, he streamed his performances online.
There’s a great article on Bob in Forbes (second week in a row mentioning that pub). You may want to check it out.
As for other notable happenings today and this week, here are a few:
National Cellulite Day
National Be Late for Something Day
National Shrink Day (my personal favorite).
National Today is great if you’re stuck for content for your social media sites. Be forewarned, you will hear an obscene number of “They’ve got a day for everything” or “Is that really a thing?” or similar comments. To paraphrase the famous “Yes, Virginia” piece, if National Today says it is so, it is.
But what about…Workspaces
My HOH has mentioned Workspaces in early editions. Your truly has still not recovered from the bad case of HOE (home office envy) from reading this weekly newsletter. This week, Workspaces is holding a drawing for a new Opal webcam. All you have to do is retweet the following and then sign up for Workspaces. You can do so below.
