September replaced the Old English forms Hāligmōnað and Hærfestmōnað, which mean “harvest month” in modern English. If the Roman senate had gotten their way, we might now be calling September Tiberius or Antoninus, after two Roman Emperors.

California (E08-E13) Native (B10-B17) (J19-J12)American Day celebrates the distinctive culture of the Native American people indigenous to California and calls attention to their triumphs and struggles that comprise their rich history.
California designated the fourth Friday of September in 1998 as California Native American Day to dismantle the misconceptions about California Indians. Previously, Students were led to believe California history began with the arrival of the first explorers and lacked a fundamental understanding of Native American’s existing society. Native populations across the country were seen as primitive and were too often associated with stereotypes like teepees and drums.

Hi Morgan.
All I know about chess is where the pieces can move. I have not got the ability to plan the stratagy needed to win.
With scrabble I look up words to fill in my Excel spreedsheet grid and take them down as others take the spaces. Like Equinox took the "talk like" out of my Talk like a Pirate" entry (Don't worry I found some new places for it next go {I hope}).
Sometimes I forget to change the new grid location if I move them. Randi has to keep me in line.
Next entry is:
Did you know that on this day, September 6, 1522, (J03-J11) Ferdinand (B02-I02) Magellan's (O12-L15) ship (M13-M20) "Victoria" completed the first circumnavigation of Earth?
