Happy Grandparents' Day, to all of us who are qualified! But my solid brown tie celebrates International Chocolate Day, honoring the birthday of Milton Hershey in 1857. It's also "Programmer's Day," because this is day #256 in the year -- 256 being the highest value that can be stored in one eight-bit byte. So you can happily enjoy all of your bytes of chocolate today!
