National Jelly Bean Day

Posted: Tue Apr 22, '08, 2:53 am

Today, April 22, is National Jelly Bean Day! We've talked about Jelly Beans before in the Easter Candy thread topic, I believe it was. Jelly Beans come in all flavors, colors, and sizes. So, if you love Jelly Beans, today's your day! :wink:

Here's a quick Trivia question for you:

Which US President was so fond of Jelly Beans that he kept a jar of them on his desk in the Oval Office at all times?

Oval office? Wasn't that the same president who had his room specifically designed so that if he stepped onto the foci points of the room, with his officials in the other side, he could hear everything that had to say even if they whispered? Thats so fun, done it before, if you've ever been to the Exploratorium in CA.

You represent... apathy.You don't really show any emotion. You can be considered cruel and cold, but you just don't really care about anything. This is just the way you are... you're quite a challenge to get close to, and others may perceive you as boring.
Zeus was the Greek excuse for having no logical explination for lightning. Hades was for the death that baffled them. Posiedon tore apart at their shores. So Athena must have explained the people who didn't believe in the gods.
