True Love Forever Day

[David Dalton]

Today (August 16, 2023) is True Love Forever Day.

It is also National Rum Day. and the national rum of Newfoundland
is Screech, a black rum distilled in Jamaica (it used to be traded
for salt fish) and used in Newfoundland in Screech-In ceremonies.

Since it is black I find it appropriate that it is associated with
today’s new/dark moon, and perhaps there can be a Screech-in
into a new age.

Ha, as usual I am grasping at straws.

Now it is early August 17, which is
National Black Cat Appreciation Day
and the black cat could also represent dark moon.
