#HappyBirthday to the #March31 #BirthCohort(with @AlGore AND @KateMicucci (etc.) on #ManateeAppreciationDay | @NationalToday @411Holidays @Microsoft @MySundayMass #HeartOfTheNation

I had a post that I rewrote everyday to replace 'yesterday's cohort' with 'today's cohort.' One day I asked myself, 'Why don't I just do an entry for every day (with that day's cohort & holidays & maybe its event-anniversaries)?'

That way I can go back & input new birthdays & events etc. Like today - #Manatee-Appreciation Day

That holiday's explanation is linked through 'the main word' below; but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...

The word “Manatee” is built on ancient words that mean |Breast, |Udder (or maybe "Having Hands," because its flippers so-resemble hands ... and (since I'm not seeing 'that resemblance' (not until I saw the skeleton) because those word-foundations are so-similar). #Manatine #Manatoid #Manatees





Today's Cohort

in the Aries nativity (basically ... I'll do some more 'research' to find out 'how the various moon-phases & risings & descendings etc. make it different'): Cesar Chavez, VP Al Gore, Richard Chamberlain (classic TV's Dr. Kildare), Christopher Walken, Ari Melber, Johann Sebastian Bach, Ewan McGregor René Descartes, Rhea Perlman, Joseph Haydn, William ("Mr. Feeny" in Boy Meets World) Daniels, Kate Micucci (Garfunkel's Oates), Henry II of France, Prince Henry (Duke of Gloucester)

(and--if you or someone you know about has a birthday today
--please mention them (and how you know them or -know
 about them) in the comments, thanks)

And I Wonder What Saints' Day my Heart of the Nation calendar says this is:

no saint, but the clergy is wearing Violet
