Birthdays And Anniversaries For October 2nd + Smile Day

If this is your birthday, congratulations! You are sharing this date with country music Guitarist Greg Jennings, born in Nicoma Park, Oklahoma, in 1954. He joins Restless Heart, playing on such smooth hits as "Why Does It Have To Be (Wrong Or Right)," "I'll Still Be Loving You" and "Bluest Eyes In Texas." He also plays on hits by Dan Seals, Rob Crosby and BlackHawk. Happy 61st, Greg!  This Is World Smile Day!

World Smile Day celebrates the ever popular yellow smiley. It also offers us an opportunity to do an act of kindness. According to the World Smile Day website, a proclamation of this day was made by the U.S. Congress. Now that should put a smiley on your face.

The smiley face became so popular, that the U.S. Post Office issued a stamp with the smiley face.

The intent of World Smile Day is to do an act of kindness, or help one person to smile. Why not do both!?

Now Let's P-A-R-T-Y!
