Tomorrow is March 15 which marks Caeser's assassination and is considered unlucky all around. Well, today, we have Red Flag warnings up for high winds and while I was out with the dog before, I was nearly struck with a flying picnic bench. The gusts are about 60mph out there and will continue into tomorrow evening.. Be careful out there folks. Never know what awaits on on 3/15.

Don't worry Lois, it's already the 15th in Australia... :LOL:
 
Hey! Watch what you're doing with that knife.
Did you know that the founder of The Democrat party, President Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) was born on March 15th 1767?
 
My sister and I always mark the Ides of March with a text or social media message. Used to be a phone call, but we've kept up šŸ™ƒ . That and "It's Cosmo's Moon!" for a big full moon are two of our 'sister' things.

Ides in the Roman calendar was originally based on the full moon, but we didn't know that until recent years. Something about that full moon...

True, but it's a good thing I have excellent peripheral vision, and was able to do a bit of fancy side stepping, you see.
