    Today is 'Celebrate Liberty Day'.

    Today is 'Near Miss Day!' - On March 23rd, 1989, a mountain sized asteroid passed the
    Earth within 500,000 miles. A very close call according to NASA. The impact would
    have equaled the strength of 40,000 hydrogen bombs, created a crater the size of the
    District of Columbia and devastated everything for 100 miles in every direction.

    Today is 'World Meteorological Day!'. - World Meteorological Day was established in 1951
    to commemorate the establishment of the World Meteorological Organization on 23
    March 1950. This organization announces a slogan for World Meteorological Day every
    year, and this day is celebrated in all member countries.

    Today celebrates Pakistan Day - This national holiday is also known as Republic Day, and
    is the anniversary of a 1940 resolution calling for a Muslim country for Muslim Indians.
    On the same day in 1956, Pakistan became an Islamic republic within the British
    Commonwealth. Pakistan Day is celebrated with parades and fairs.

    That's all for now.
