Today most of us will be celebrating Halloween, more formally known as All Hallow's Eve!
For my Protestant brethren (and sistren?), today also celebrates Reformation Day, commemorating when, 491 years ago, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the doors of a church. (I will have more to say about Reformation Day in the next couple of days.)
But probably most significantly and most solemnly, today also marks the birth of that great American entertainer, Mr. Robert Van Winkle, otherwise known as Vanilla Ice.
Happy October 31st!
