Old School memories… Nov. 8th is Dunce Day!
Dunce Cap: Duns Scotus of Duns, Scotland medieval
scholar, believed that cone shaped hats increased
learning potential. Knowledge would flow from the
point of the cap down into the head of the wearer,
making that person smarter. This would motivate
wearer to learn more, to be rid of the cap.
Worked for me! 😉
Pickled eggs? ![Emoji]()
Place hard boiled eggs in a jar,
add can of beets, cover with vinegar, wait 2 days.
Preserves EGGS so that they can be eaten weeks later.
Favorite snack in pubs, bars anywhere beer is served.
Remember them at Triangle Bar in Rockledge? 😉
Another CHS memory… French Fries and Mayonnaise.
Even if we can’t be happy,

“Witch” stems from the Old English word wicce,
which means “wise woman.” 😉
Trick-or-Treating goes back 2,000 years to Ancient Celts.
They celebrated a pagan festival called Samhain on
November 1 that marked the end of the harvest season.
Night before they believed the dead returned as ghosts.
They left food and wine on doorsteps to appease them.
8th century Christian church replaced Sahmain with ALL
SAINTS DAY or All Hallows of course became Halloween.
“Bitch”… Now that is another story for another day! 😉
Next event: Norman’s Sports Bar in Cocoa
