TRIVIA TODAY - Wednesday, June 16, 2010
Greetings Infomaniacs,
Welcome to Wednesday, folks. The name comes from the Middle
English Wednes dei, which is from Old English Wodnesdag,
meaning the day of the English god Woden, a god in Anglo-
Saxon England until about the 7th century.
It is also know less formally as "Hump Day!" implying that
you have to get "over the hump" of the middle of the week
before you can enjoy the weekend.
And shame on you people who think Hump Day has a whole other
meaning!
Enjoy!
Melissa
