There is probably no other writer who is remembered for his Christmas story than Charles Dickens. A Christmas Carol is as famous a story as any during the holiday season.

It was during Dickens time, that many great Christmas punches were seen at parties and events celebrating the season. 

A funny message from a Christmas past

I came across this old email from a friend I had known since high school. When I say the message is old, I mean it. It came November 26, 2001, back in the days when the internet was still fairly new.

KC , my awesome friend, passed away due to cancer about five years ago after putting up a brilliant 10 year fight. She was truly an inspirational person to be around.

March 4th marks an unusual but empowering holiday: March Forth and Do Something Day. This unofficial observance encourages individuals to take action and pursue their aspirations. Derived from a play on words with the homonyms forth and fourth, the holiday urges people to seize the day and make meaningful strides in their lives.
