ON THIS DAY

March 10, 1959, Tibetans band together in revolt, surrounding the summer palace of the Dalai Lama in defiance of Chinese occupation forces.

 

WORD OF THE DAY: Our Merriam Webster word of the day is Factotum

A factotum is a person who has many diverse activities or responsibilities, and especially one whose work involves a wide variety of tasks.

// After graduating from college, Natalia worked for several years as an office factotum.

 

Now, to wrap up for this Beaver Island Friday…

Here’s a thought for the day from the Dalai Lama,

The goal is not to be better than the other man, but your previous self.

 

 

On a lighter note Since Friday is Pizza night at Dalwhinnie’s I was going to tell a pizza joke, but it was too cheesy

That’s the W-V-B-I Community Calendar for this Beaver Island Friday, March 10th, 2023. I’m Greg Doig reporting from W-V-B-I’s Langford Family Studios wishing you a great day and asking you: why not go ahead and make it the best day ever? And, thanks for listening.
