Today (August 16) 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.

"True love forever day"

Sure. Just as reasonable as wishing on a twinkly star that the world becomes
all unicorns, day old puppies, and magic rainbows. At least rum is far more realistic and is something that
is actually attainable by most.

Rum to forget about the whole "true love forever day" nonsense.
