Daily Holidays - July 5

Bikini Day

Bikini Day is the anniversary of the invention of the bikini in 1946 by a Parisian fashion designer, Louis Reard. The goal of this holiday is to get to the closest beach, or find some cheap travel deals to the Philippines, Bali, Hawaii or anywhere with lots of beach, and spend the day in your bikini! https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/bikini-day/

Hopefully the incidents of violence will take a downturn, too.

Some idiots think that if they perform an act of "martyrdom" during Ramadan it gets them in the door to paradise even if they are an imperfect Muslim.
