TODAY is Love Your Pet Day, Cherry Pie Day and Handcuff Day.
Love Your Pet Day
How’s your relationship with your favourite furry friend? Love Your Pet Day is a chance to show your cat, dog, tortoise or (insert other) how you really feel. Treats, pampering and all the attention that the little guy or gal can handle are a great way to celebrate.
Cherry Pie Day
When we think of pie most of us think of an apple pie, but the sweet-tart cherry pie deserves a place right next to its brother on the dessert tray. So do you like your pie sharp and tart or do you prefer a sweeter and smooth pie? Today’s the best day to have one.
Handcuff Day
A happy anniversary for law-abiding citizens, but not so much for the criminally inclined. Handcuff Day marks the occasion back in 1912, on February 20th, when a patent was granted to George A Carney for a revolutionary new style of handcuff. This new design became the de facto restraint of law enforcement agencies worldwide. Lightweight and easier to use than previous handcuffs, Carney’s revolutionary “swinging bow ratchet – type” handcuff design allows a subject to be secured without the use of a key.
