Hello!

Today, November 21 is World Hello Day.

World Hello Day is a secular holiday observed annually on November 21, to express that conflicts should be resolved through communication rather than the use of force. Participants verbally greet ten people or more on that day as an expression of the importance of personal communication in preserving peace. The annual global event began to be celebrated in 1973 as a response to the Yom Kippur War.

Impressive dancing.. I like their voices, too!

I have this new laptop and it won't let me c/p video or pics.. I have to call Dell Tech support about. I might have to take it back.. two more months to decide.. I got it at Costco.

Mahalo for letting me know about International Hello Day!
