Have YOU heard about the time an entire city got hooked on candy bars? It was a real SWEET success story... but first!
Did you know that today is National Grammar Day? I'm not trying to be tense about it, but this is a present I can't pass up! And hey, if you're wondering why grammar is important, just remember: commas save lives. "Let's eat, Grandma" is very different from "Let's eat Grandma"!
On this day in 1917, the iconic Jeep went into production. Talk about a vehicle that really ROSE to the occasion! The military loved it so much, they said it had the perfect MILITARY BEARING - get it? Because it has bearings? And it's military? No? Well, I guess that joke needs some more... TRACTION!
March 4th is National Pound Cake Day! Why is it called pound cake, you ask? Because the original recipe called for a pound each of flour, butter, eggs, and sugar. Talk about a recipe that really WEIGHS on your mind!
Speaking of weighty matters, on this day in 1902, the American Automobile Association (AAA) was founded. They really got their motor running by helping drivers who were having a BRAKE-down!
Today we're also celebrating National Hug a G.I. Day! Just remember to ask permission first - you don't want to get court MARTIAL-ed for assault!
And now for our sweet feature story: On this day in 1912, the city of Chicago got its first taste of the Hershey's Candy Bar! The chocolate was such a hit that people were literally lining up around the block. You might say they were all MILTON with excitement! The demand was so high that one store owner complained, "These chocolate bars are driving me NUTS!" To which his assistant replied, "Sir, those are the almond ones!"
