Vincent's Sunday Surprise Beverage Bonanza

Howdy Dudes and Dudettes of Texas!

Today’s Sunday Surprise Beverage is Make –Your – Own - Beverage Day! I’ve got lots of Large Boxes full of drink making ingredients stacked up right here and I’m going to beam them directly into the home of every Texan in Texas. Everyone will receive a Large Box and it’ll materialize on the table closest to you. With all the drink ingredients in your box you can make Orange Lassis, Black Shakers, cool drinks with funky names like “Off To Work” and “Fresh Up” and Virgin Mojitos. There’s enough ingredients to make 3 glasses of each drink and I’ve included an Instructional Guide CD to walk you through the drink making process. You can keep the Instructional Guide CD as my gift to you:

When blending drinks in your blender always add your ice at the end so it doesn’t jam up the blender. Also if you’ve got alcohol in your house and you desire an alcoholic drink just mix your own booze into the beverages.

And to celebrate Earth Day I’ve included a Ready-To-Eat Burrito Bowl Mason Jar Salad in everyone’s boxes too. Stuff it, shake it, eat it straight. Behold the beauty of a Mason jar layered with sauteed chicken, bacon fat-swabbed sweet potatoes and cilantro-lime quinoa, all ready to eat out of hand. Happy Earth Day! :)

All Transporter Platforms are on loan from Trecdom2. As soon as I’m done sending all the boxes to y’all, the Transporter Platforms will beam themselves back to him. Thanks Dude! :)

I hope y’all enjoy today’s Sunday Surprise Food and Beverages Texans. Yeehaw! :)

Finally, I have broken into the Top 10 most Eco-Friendly Governments in the World after more than 15 years. I'm really quite proud of this achievement. It's been a very long time coming.

I'd like to thank the people that made it possible, specifically the 43.8% of deaths in my nation that occur after getting lost in the wilderness. It's a small price to pay, and I thank my people for doing what they need to do to make it happen.

Carry a map and a gun or something, really.

The beaches are open (with some restrictions) in Jacksonville, FL. Been there, seen that with my own two eyes. This is a step forward for sure.

And I got home just in time for Mother Nature to get her panties all up in a wad...

Where you live, do you think your local and state is doing enough to low this? Maybe not enough? Perhaps way too much? What are your thoughts and why?

National Look Alike Day

National Look Alike Day on April 20th celebrates those who look like another person. National Look Alike Day each year April 20th celebrates those who much like look like another person. Similar to the two sentences preceding this one, people who look like each are still unique in their own way.

This day was created as a fun day to look like another person. Growing up, did a teacher constantly call you by another student’s name? Some of us often hear the words, “You remind me of someone,” or “You look just like so and so.” If so, then you are one step ahead of the game.

Professional look-alikes perform as entertainers. Some of the most famous roles they play are Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe. But others look like presidents or actors.

If you do find your spitting image, some might call it a doppelganger. However, seeing your doppelganger suggests you’ve seen your spirt double who roams the Earth. In folklore, seeing your doppelganger signals a bad omen. Though over the years, the term has come to mean someone who looks just like you.

Now the chances of finding someone your mirror image depends on who you believe. There’s no strong scientific evidence one way or the other, and different tools analyze what different features. But if you’ve met your living clone, you know just how likely the chances are of running into your look alike.

HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalLookAlikeDay

Celebrate by dressing like someone you will see today or select a celebrity and dress up like them. Fix your hair like they do and talk like them all day long! Or, if you’ve met your real-life look alike, share a picture. Have fun and post your pictures on Social Media using #NationalLookAlikeDay.

NATIONAL LOOK ALIKE DAY HISTORY

National Look Alike Day was created by feature television reporter, Jack Etzel, in the 1980s. He was in downtown Pittsburgh with photographer Rick Minutello, desperately looking for a light feature for the news. Rick said, “This guy coming toward us looks like Humphrey Bogart.” He did, cigarette and all. Jack said, “Let’s talk to him. I’ll ask him who people think he looks like.” They spent a couple of hours asking others the same question. The next day Etzel got in touch with the Chase Calendar of Events people and proclaimed Look Alike Day so that they could depend on that same funny story for the next ten years.

(History as told by Jack Etzel in correspondence to National Day Calendar® in July 2014.)

“Happiness is not a goal…it’s a by-product of a life well lived.” - Eleanor Roosevelt

“Remember that happiness is a way of travel – not a destination.” - Roy M. Goodman

“Man, unlike the animals, has never learned that the sole purpose of life is to enjoy it.” - Samuel Butler

National Library Workers Day

Each year in April, National Library Workers Day recognizes the valuable contributions library staff make every day to their communities through their hard work and dedication. The observance takes place annually on the Tuesday of National Library Week.

Libraries do so much more than house the books we borrow nearly any time of the day or night. (Yes, any time, day or night. Online reservation is highly popular.) Today as always, library workers are masters of research. They find the obscure quote (or partial misquote as the case may be) helping you to annotate your research paper correctly. When you’re on a job search, they offer internet access and computers so you can polish up your résumé, too.

Often, libraries are the keepers of local history. The names of pioneers and settlers’ names are usually recorded in books and newspapers of the era. Many libraries across the country house those books, papers, and many other resources.

Library workers champion our youth. They foster creativity and are a wealth of diverse opportunities for growth. Not only do they create projects and inspiration for our youth, but they also create them with enthusiasm! It can be quite infectious.

Despite all libraries and their employees provide to their communities, their budgets and salaries continue to shrink. This day brings awareness to this continuing trend. Libraries and their employees continuously utilize the latest technologies to make information, books, and resources more accessible. Their knowledge and ability bring valuable tools directly to communities that might otherwise go without. They also serve every age group, many organizations, and entire communities.

HOW TO OBSERVE #NatonalLibraryWorkersDay
Give a shout out to a library worker you know. Discovery all the resources your library offers. Support your library and its staff. When budget time comes for your city or state, do your part to support your library. Visit your local library, or it’s Use #NationalLibraryWorkersDay to post on social media.

NATIONAL LIBRARY WORKERS DAY HISTORY
The American Library Association sponsors National Library Workers Day, and it was first celebrated in 2004. It was started as a way to raise support for better benefits and salaries at a time when they had been stagnant for years. The observance continues to promote increased benefits and wages for the services provided by library workers every day.

National Earth Day

Each year on April 22nd, National Earth Day campaigns around the globe promote ways to save the Earth.

Since its inception, the organizers promote events educating the public about a variety of subjects including:

* climate change
* air pollution
* water pollution
* erosion
* recycling
* composting
* renewable fuels and power
* carbon footprints
* efficient cars
* rain forests
* ecosystems

As citizens of the world, we can take actions protecting the Earth, its creatures and their habitats. Greener living can include more fuel-efficient vehicles or windows. It can also include landscaping for your climate reducing the amount of water required.

HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalEarthDay

Celebrate by engaging in Earth Day activities in your area. Ways to participate include:

* Support and use recycling programs in your community.
* Volunteer to clean up local parks and streets on clean up days.
* Support and frequent green businesses.
* Use re-usable products versus disposable.
* Repurpose items that have outworn their use.
* Shop secondhand and thrift stores for gently used items.
* Use energy-efficient appliances or line dry your clothes.
* Walk or ride your bike to work if possible.
* Carpool or make one trip instead of multiple trips for shopping.
* Encourage your favorite products to reduce packaging.

Numerous green campaigns launch events around the globe each year. Join one near you or organize one that fits your community needs. Be sure to register the event, too! For example, check out One Square Inch of Silence. Founded on Earth Day in 2005, it encourages you to participate in expanding naturally silent spaces around the globe.

Share your Earth Day experiences and join the conversation using #EarthDay on Social Media.

NATIONAL EARTH DAY HISTORY

In 1969, the concept of Earth Day was established at a UNESCO Conference in San Francisco. On March 21, 1970, a sanctioned Proclamation was signed by Secretary General U Thant at the United Nations. A month later, on April 22, 1970, U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson founded Earth Day. While National Earth Day is not considered a national holiday we encourage you to learn more.

Environmentalists held rallies in large cities around the country. The observance became a global event in 1990 and hasn’t stopped since.

https://nationaldaycalendar.com/days-2/national-earth-day-april-22/

National Administrative Professionals’ Day

National Administrative Professionals’ Day, also known as Secretaries Day or Admin Day, recognizes the professionals who keep an office running smoothly every day. Celebrate these professionals on the Wednesday of the last full week in April of each year. The day recognizes the work of secretaries, administrative assistants, receptionists, and other administrative support professionals. Central to any business, these professionals keep an office organized and efficient.

The day in the life of an administrative professional is varied from moment to moment. While organization is key to their success, their flexibility and ability to handle the unexpected make them valuable to any business. Some of their responsibilities include managing appointments, drafting letters and memos, booking business trips, coordinating appointments and planning meetings.

Administrative professionals compile data and research information, too. Their organizational skills mean they pinpoint information quickly and keep the executive on schedule, whether they are in transit or with a client. They are central to an office or business running efficiently.

HOW TO OBSERVE #AdminProfessionalsDay

Celebrate by giving gifts to your assistant, such as flowers, gift certificates, gift baskets, candy or lunch. Honor your assistant by sharing your gratitude on social media using #AdminProfessionalsDay.

NATIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONALS’ DAY HISTORY
The International Association of Administrative Professionals promotes National Administrative Professionals Day. The observance first launched in 1952 when U.S. Secretary of Commerce, Charles Sawyer proclaimed June as National Secretaries Week. In that same year, June 4th was designated National Secretaries Day. The name changed to Administrative Professionals in 2000 when the day was also added and the events moved to April.

https://nationaldaycalendar.com/national-administrative-professionals-day-wednesday-of-last-full-week-in-april/

Each year, National Girl Scout Leader’s Day

Each year, National Girl Scout Leader’s Day on April 22nd recognizes the thousands of leaders who volunteer their time and share their experience with youth across the country. Girl Scout volunteer leaders have been positively impacting girls’ lives since the beginning of Girl Scouting in 1912. These leaders are often beacons for girls as they approach womanhood. They provide a foundation of confidence, experience, respect and courage that stays with a young woman throughout her lifetime.

Approximately 750,000 adults volunteer their time with the Girl Scouts. Through their leadership, girls gain experience in community service, stewardship, relationship building and much more. Their leaders offer decision-making skills, build confidence and character, form friendships and develop leaders for tomorrow.

HOW TO OBSERVE #GirlScoutLeadersDay

Celebrate the day by thanking a volunteer for their hard work and dedication to the Girl Scout program. Share your experiences as a Girl Scout leader or consider volunteering. What has being a Girl Scout taught you and who was the leader who influenced you most? Use #GirlScoutLeadersDay on Social Media to say thanks!

NATIONAL GIRL SCOUT LEADER’S DAY HISTORY

Girl Scout of the U.S.A. proclaimed Girl Scouts Leader’s Day in 1982 to recognize the volunteers who serve as role models to millions of youth each year. They selected the date of April 22nd because it falls near National Volunteer Week each year.

https://nationaldaycalendar.com/days-2/national-girl-scout-leaders-day-april-22/

National Bookmobile Day

National Bookmobile Day in April recognizes the mobile access to information and resources our nation’s bookmobiles make available to our communities. The day also honors the professionals who diligently work to provide these services. For more than 100 years, bookmobiles have been bringing library access to those who might otherwise go without them.

Bookmobiles are mobile libraries designed to travel from neighborhood to neighborhood. They hold a variety of books, periodicals and usually run on a schedule. Many have computer access, too. Librarians check out books much like at a local library. Books can be returned on the next scheduled stop or at the associated library.

Visitors of all ages with a library card can use the bookmobile. While many of us visit libraries all the time, the bookmobile makes it convenient for those who don’t live close to one or who find it difficult to schedule the time to go visit the library.

HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalBookmobileDay

Utilize your local bookmobile. Learn their schedules and make sure you have your library card at the ready. Check out a book and enjoy the convenience your bookmobile provides. Support your community bookmobile and the librarians who run them, too. Give them a shout out and let them know what books you’d like to see on the bookmobile the next time you see them. Share what you like about your local bookmobile using #NationalBookmobileDay to post on social media.

NATIONAL BOOKMOBILE DAY HISTORY
The American Library Association, the Association of Bookmobile and Outreach service and the Association of Rural and Small Libraries coordinate National Bookmobile Day during National Library Week.

ALERT: Facebook yearbook fun could lead to online fraud
https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2020/04/15/facebook-high-school-yearbook-photo-fun-could-lead-online-fraud/5138576002/

Ladies and Gentlemen of Texas

Please read this before posting that high school yearbook photo to Facebook

Too long? Here’s the Important Part:

Posting an old photo with graduation year and high school name seems like such an innocent thing. The Better Business Bureau cautions Facebook users against posting high school graduation photos and graduation years as scammers may harvest the data.

Scammers and hackers surfing social media will look for these #ClassOf2020 posts and now have posters’ high school names and graduation years – which are often used for online security questions.

The BBB said scammers can do a quick internet search to learn more information about the poster like real name, birth date, family members and city or town of residence. The BBB said to beware of what is shared online – even with friends.

Social media tips from the Better Business Bureau

• Resist the temptation to play along. While it’s fun to see others' posts, if you are uncomfortable participating, it is best to not do it.

• Review your security settings. Check your security settings on all social media platforms to see what you are sharing and with whom you are sharing.

• Change security questions and settings. If you are nervous about something you shared possibly opening you up to fraud, review and change your security settings for banking and other websites.

And even short staffed the fun folks at Facebook were able to delete and suppress groups and individual trying to organize protests against stay-at-home orders. But full staffed, they cannot seem to do anything about groups and accounts that promote protests, property damage, violence for causes like Black Live Matters, Antifa, No Tumpers, etc.[1][2]

National Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day

Each year on the fourth Thursday in April, National Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day encourages parents to take their children to work.

This annual event is an educational program in the United States and Canada where parents take their children to work with them for one day. The day is designed to help children explore the workforce. It inspires children to see the different roles required to run a business or to build a project. They may find an interest in engineering, accounting or art while spending the day with mom or day. Perhaps a child’s natural proclivity for order leads them into logistics someday.

Children are observant and curious. Bring them into your work world so they can explore careers and skills. Empower them to set goals and create path to their dream career.

HOW TO OBSERVE #TakeOurChildrenToWorkDay

Share with your children what a day in your work life is like. If you work from home create activities to simulate what your day might involve. Perhaps they can join you on a conference call. Share with them the skills and education your job requires. Describe the process for completing a project and how ideas are sparked. For more at-home project ideas visit daughtersandsonstowork.org.

Employers are encouraged to invite employees to bring their children to work. For more information visit daughtersandsonstowork.org. Share your story on social media using #TakeOurChildrenToWorkDay

NATIONAL TAKE OUR DAUGHTERS AND SONS TO WORK DAY HISTORY

Our research found that National Take Your Daughters and Sons to Work Day was founded by Gloria Steinem and the MS Foundation for Women in 1993. It is the successor to Take Our Daughters to Work Day which, in 2003, was expanded to include boys. Most companies allowed both girls and boys to participate since the beginning, renaming the day “Take Our Children to Work Day.”

National Talk Like Shakespeare Day

On April 23rd each year, National Talk Like Shakespeare Day encourages us to speak like the Bard and the characters in his plays.

Born April 23, 1564, William Shakespeare is the author of some of the world’s most celebrated plays and poems. In 2016, we honored the 400th anniversary of the Bard’s death. What better way to celebrate his life and art than to speak like the poet and playwright.

We can speak like Shakespeare by substituting thou, thee and ye for you and they. Rhyming couplets and creative insults were his particular favorites. Many of the phrases we use today we can owe to Shakespeare.

We could make you wait with bated breath for the list. We could send you on a wild goose chase to find them. For goodness sake, you might just be the laughing stock if we did!

Oh, come now. No need to fight fire with fire. Come what may we will give you the naked truth and teach to you talk like Shakespeare. We’ll snatch you out of the jaws of death and put you in a pickle too while we are at it!

What makes your hair stand on end? Did we set your teeth on edge? Well, what’s done is done.

You may be such a sorry sight, but still, the world is your oyster even if you wear your heart on your sleeve. Aye, you have seen better days! We must send you packing. It’s all Greek to you anyway!

HOW TO OBSERVE #TalkLikeShakespeareDay

Speaketh like Shakespeare and celebrate his birthday. Share on social media by using #TalkLikeShakespeareDay.

Educators, visit the National Day Calendar® Classroom for lessons designed for National Talk Like Shakespeare Day.

NATIONAL TALK LIKE SHAKESPEARE DAY HISTORY

National Talk Like Shakespeare Day was first launched in 2009 by the Chicago Shakespeare Theater, which was inspired by another day devoted to talking in character – International Talk Like a Pirate Day (September 19). In 2011, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn proclaimed April 23rd as Talk Like Shakespeare Day giving the theater’s efforts official recognition.

The day also coincides with English Language Day which began in 2010 as a cultural recognition day by the United Nations.

Tell me you didn't fall for that crap...

To set the record straight, President trump didn't tell anyone to shoot up some Lysol. The President was asking a question in general terms. The garbage news media's screaming talking heads and bold headlines are lying to you. The masses are buying it hook line and sinker.

The President commented on doctors talking about using UV light and other forms of disinfectant to kill the virus. He didn't suggest doing it, he asked his staff if it was something that could be done.

The president is not a doctor. That is not his job. But the man is trying to save lives. He is trying to think outside the box. The President thinking outside the box is why we are now making off label use of hydroxychloroquine with a lot of success. So much so, that we now have a Democrat Michigan state representative singing the praises the President for pointing that stuff out and saving her life. (Much to the distress of her Trump hating party.)

Don't take my word for it. Watch the video yourself and make up your own mind: https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4871173/president-trump-injecting-disinfectants

Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen of Texas!

Today is:
National Arbor Day
National Pigs in a Blanket Day

Quotes of the Day:

“The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit.” - Nelson Henderson

"I plant a lot of trees. I am a great believer in planting things for future generations. I loathe the now culture where you just live for today." - Penelope Keith

"Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence." - Hal Borland

Music of the Day:

Plant a Tree for Your Tomorrow - John Denver
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wT4xP6stCE

On This Day In History:
2004 United States lifts economic sanctions imposed on Libya 18 years ago, as reward for cooperation in eliminating weapons of mass destruction

2005 Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger is inaugurated as the 265th Pope of the Roman Catholic Church taking the name Pope Benedict XVI.

2018 Suffragist Millicent Fawcett is the first woman to have a statue erected in Parliament Square, London, England

National Arbor Day

Broadleaf. Evergreen. Conifer. How well do you really know your trees? Now you have a goal for National Arbor Day.

America’s first Arbor Day took place toward the start of the 1870s — right around the time Congress established Yellowstone National Park. Celebrate nothing less than humanity’s endearment toward nature on April 24, just four days after Earth Day.

Note: National Arbor Day always falls on the last Friday in April, but many states observe Arbor Day on different dates throughout the year based on their best tree planting times. That varies widely. Find your state’s date here: https://www.arborday.org/celebrate/dates.cfm

NATIONAL ARBOR DAY ACTIVITIES

Plant a tree
What better way to celebrate Arbor Day than to plant your very own tree? It's an incredible experience watching a tree grow over the years, and it's an unbelievable feeling knowing that you made it happen.

Don't print this!
Deforestation is a huge problem with many implications, and cutting down on our paper usage is the most immediate way to make a difference. You can go a step further by seeking out brands with sustainable business practices, and by adopting strong composting and recycling habits.

Take a hike
The good kind! Hiking is a great escape from the doldrums of everyday life, and it's an activity that's great for people across a wide age range.

WHY WE LOVE NATIONAL ARBOR DAY

Natural beauty
With so much of our population living in big cities, it's easy to lose sight of nature's greatness and splendor.

Our planet needs love
Despite some disagreement about global warming, there's no debating that keeping our planet healthy helps to keep us healthy. There's a lot to love about a holiday that helps make our planet a better place.

A global movement
With over 40 nations having their own version of Arbor Day, it's safe to say that this holiday is global. We've got a lot to be thankful for when it comes to trees, so it's only natural that so many cultures have their own day to celebrate.

Coronavirus live updates: FDA issues hydroxychloroquine warning; US passes 50K deaths; blowback against Trump on disinfectants
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2020/04/24/coronavirus-updates-tips-disinfectants-trump-comments-georgia-reopening/3015002001/

Here’s The Important Part:

FDA: Don't use hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine for COVID-19 outside of the hospital setting or a clinical trial due to risk of heart rhythm problems

Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine can cause serious problems related to patients' heart rhythms for COVID-19 cases, especially when used in combination with other medicines that have the effect of causing abnormal heart rhythms or a dangerously rapid heart rate, the FDA warned.

"Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine have not been shown to be safe and effective for treating or preventing COVID-19," the FDA warning said. The agency has, however, temporarily authorized their use for treating the virus in hospitalized patients when a clinical trial is not available. Clinical trials testing the drugs efficacy and safety in COVID-19 patients are being studied, the FDA said.

Ladies and Gentlemen of Texas,

In other words, Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine could cause cardiac arrhythmias that sometimes leads to cardiac arrest and that’s why these medications must be administered in a hospital so the patients can be monitored.

I have said it before and I will say it again. If you are experiencing possible COVID-19 symptoms and believe you have COVID-19, please consult your Primary Care Physician and be properly diagnosed and treated by your doctor instead of self – medicating with any of the drugs that has been listed in any news article as being tested as a possible cure.

Some medications have very bad side effects and must be administered in a hospital so the patient can be monitored by the doctor. I do not want anyone in our Texas Region to be harmed by self – medicating and get worse and possibly wind up in critical condition and/or die as a result of it. So please do not use Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine at home in an attempt at self-medicating.

Furthermore, if you have the anti-malaria drug Chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine in your medicine cabinet or any medications for any serious health conditions and you are the parents of young children, for God’s sake PLEASE ensure that your child or toddler CANNOT get their hands on any of the medications in your medication cabinet. If they could get the child-proof cap off the bottles, they could accidentally ingest those medications and possibly die. I know you love your children, so please protect them against a preventable tragedy.

May God continue to bless and protect everyone in Texas as well as our relatives and keep us healthy and uninfected by COVID-19. Amen.

Live long and prosper everyone.

Your Buddy Verner
