TRIVIA TODAY - Monday, January 14, 2013

Greetings Infomaniacs,

Tonight at the library where I work, a speaker is coming to give a talk on getting organized to reduce stress. I volunteered to work this program because I could certainly use some tips for the new year. If I hear any good ones, I'll be sure to share them with all of you.

Now, let's kick off this Monday with some fun and random facts!

Enjoy!
Melissa
