Jul. 16th, 2024 06:58 am16. It's World Snake Day - do you have any venomous snakes in your country? Have you ever seen one?
We do. Only at the zoo, I think. We were hiking one time and saw a large black snake coiled up on a tree branch; we did not investigate, just walked on by...
17. Does anyone you know have an annoying habit? What is it?
18. International Nelson Mandela Day - one of his famous quotes is "It always seems impossible, until it is done." Have you ever achieved the impossible (or what seemed impossible until you managed it)?
19. It's the lead guitarist of Queen - Brian May's birthday (1947) today. Do you ever sing along to Bohemian Rhapsody if you hear it playing (Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango)?
20. Gregor Mendel was born today in 1822. He was an Austrian monk and geneticist who discovered the laws of heredity. Have you ever had your DNA tested?
21. In 1897 the Tate Gallery in London opened to house collections of International and British modern and contemporary art. Do you like modern art or do you prefer more traditional styles?
22. Has today been a good day? What small thing have you achieved today?
23. Can you believe that Daniel Radcliffe is 34 years old today? Have you ever seen any of the Harry Potter films?
24. Today at 12:51 EDT, Apollo 11 returned to Earth, after taking the first astronauts to the moon and returning them safely. Have you seen any of the moon landings on the TV?
25. In 1970 The Carpenters got to number 1 with "(They long to be) Close to You". Admit it - you've now got that song going through your head..LOL!
26. Stanley Kubrick was born on this day in 1928 - have you ever seen 2001 A Space Odyssey?
27. Have you ever had major building work in your home?
28. It's World Conservation Day - a day to remind us to conserve the Earth's resources. Do you make an effort not to waste energy (e.g. by making your own compost, recycling, planting a tree, using non-toxic cleaning supplies, turning off lights when you leave a room, or something else?
29. International Tiger Day - have you ever read the book The Tiger Who Came to Tea?
30. In 1907 Sir Robert Baden-Powell formed the Boy Scouts in England. Were you ever a Scout, or in a similar youth organisation?
31. Do you have a lawn on your property? Who mows it?
