In one area, I found something that suggested today would be World Statistics Day - however, in an odd twist, the UN Statistical Commission had suggested to only celebrate it every 5 years (2010, 2015, 2020...)
How odd. Guess we'll have a few years to wait.
That being said, it is International Sloth Day.
Slow little thing, hanging upside down.
Another thing that hangs upside down is a bat... and you probably immediately think of a vampire bat... think of a vampire bat and you think of vampires. Most famous vampire is Dracula, obviously and you'll probably think of the famous portrayal by Bela Lugosi.
Bela was born on this day in 1882.
He just had that vampire look about him.
Depending on your genre, another fella who hangs out in the dark and slips around in shadows would be the ranger that the hobbits run into in Bree. That ranger, Aragorn, was played by actor Viggo Mortensen in the movies, and it's his birthday today.
63 years old... wouldn't have guessed it.
