#HappyBirthday to the #April27 #BirthdayCohort (with @Jenna_Coleman_ & @CoryBooker &c.) ... on #NationalDevilDogsDay @NationalToday | @aPhraseAweek @411Holidays @MySundayMass

So I had a post that I rewrote everyday to replace 'yesterday's birthday-cohort' with 'today's birthday-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 (National #DevilDogs Day ... which is also National-Prime Rib-, -Tell a Story- & Babe Ruth-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 “Devil Dog” is this kind of cake, named after the WWII Germans' name for the U.S. Marines whom they regarded as #Devil Dogs with Persistent Determination under Enemy-Fire
The word "Devil" is built on ancient words that mean "to Throw (Reach) Across or -Through" (to Slander, |Attack ... though I've heard that the word has a C.A.N.O.E.-meaning of "the Seam between |Planks on a Ship's |Hull," giving the phrase "Pay the Devil" its original meaning: 'Hang over the side of the boat and Spread |Caulk over the Seams').

The Bible's use of the word could be translated (according to #StrongsHebrew7700) Demon, or -(according to #StrongsGreek1228) |Malicious Gossip, Slanderer, False God, -Accuser, |Traducer, Back-Biter, Condemner, one who Casts-Through (making Charges that Bring Down & Destroy ... the same way Satan does).





Today's Birthday-Cohort

Astrologically, probably in the chart of Taurus: President Ulysses S. Grant, Senator Cory Booker, Lizzo, Jack Klugman (Oscar Madison on The Odd Couple), Casey Kasem, Sheena Easton, Si Robertson (Duck Dynasty), Jenna Coleman, Samuel Morse, Tim LaHaye (co-author of The Left Behind Series), Lizzo, Coretta Scott King (wife of Martin Luther King Jr.)

(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, with the clergy in White Vestments
