Well, 1.23 is kind of a whimsical date, but the days end up being kind of serious and somber. A couple of accidents with the space program, and the sinking of a military transport ship with huge loss of life. So, if I had it to do over, I'd maybe try to pick some lighter days. There is the birthday of Robert Burns and the possibility of a Burns supper - there's a link on the website for how to do it! As always, this material is available in printed form at wordstwiceaweek.blogspot.com.
