Today was one of the days I looked, so let me share with you. These are not from regularly visited sites or anything, just the first results in a Google search.
Quote of the Day:
We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men.
-- Herman Melville
My take: OK, I guess. It's not really making me want to change my whole life though.
Joke of the Day:
I should have known better than to flush my wooden shoes down the toilet. Now it's clogged.
My take: Funny if a kid told you. Otherwise, worth a smile.
Bird of the Day:
Northern Beardless-Tyrannulet
My take: I have never heard of, or seen this bird, but I am guessing that is since it is native to the Southwest. I do like him/her, though. Admittedly, I like birds, so I may be biased.\
Animal of the Day:
Another bird - the California Quail!
My take: I LOVE the little doodly-doo on his head!!
Botany photo of the day:
My take: I have never seen these, but they look like mushrooms that had some "wacky mushrooms"!
Astronomy photo of the day:
My take: WHOA.
Born on this day:
Lou Gehrig, Paul McCartney
My take: Happy Birthday!
On this day in history:
In 1983, Sally Ride becomes the first American woman in space
My take: YES!
Weird fact of the day: "Almost" is the longest word in the English language with all of the letters in alphabetical order.
My take: I am quite possibly the only person in the world who is extremely pleased to know this.
Word of the day: Precarious
My take: OK, sure.
And that, ladies and gentlemen and children of all ages, is my Post of the Day! :-)

LOL I love this post! Your take is the best!
Great/fun post Bridget. I never think to look at these things. The doodly-do IS great and that moon pic? Fabulous. Thanks for sharing.
Quote of the Day:
True, but you’ve got to find a balance between yourself and the world!
Joke of the Day:
This is what the kids today call a “Dad” joke! (I liked it!)
Bird of the Day:
Beautiful, but I find it odd that a bird that lives in the southwest is called “Northern”
Animal of the Day:
I love quail. They are just so ridiculous!
Botany photo of the day:
I love fungi in all its amazing shapes. (Except black mold in my house, and green stuff growing on my bread)
Astronomy photo of the day:
Wowza!
On this day in history:
Now I’ve got Wilson Pickett’s Mustang Sally stuck in my head…
Weird fact of the day:
That is an incredibly satisfying fact.
Word of the day:
I think that’s the word of my life
That was very fun!!!!
A while back I bought an Echo show and Alexa is always trying to get me interested in this very thing. I have to say I've been pretty successful at ignoring her so far.
I love that little doodly-doo also. Love this post Bridget, you made me smile.
snort, the joke was quite 'punny'.
Oh, I love knowing that about Almost! Thank you.
Not the only person! I am delighted to know this fact about ALMOST! :-)
(Also. That doodly-doo! Love.)
XO
You rock SO hard.
I love weird facts. Of course, I can't remember them, but I love reading/hearing them. Fun post!
I really like the factoid about already, too.
