Brain Food!!!

Good Morning, Afternoon, or Evening depending on the time you are reading this post. Well we are one day closer to the weekend, that's if you work a normal Mon-Fri kind of job. As for me, I work third shift and have odd days off. I make the most of my schedule. No funny stories or interesting stuff to report on my end today. Still trying to get the swing of this Blog I took over for my dad. I promise to include all the crazy stuff he use to entertain you with, but for now here is some more useful facts for the day.
