The World by Day

Card Reading Day is a fun day. It's a day to read cards..... no more, no less.

Beyond a doubt, the stationery and Ecard companies love this day. It encourages you to send cards. They like that.

As we did our research, we thought we'd find some history that suggest it is a day for Tarot card readings. It very well could be. But, we found no written evidence to support our theory.

What we can tell you, is that its very popular to send and receive cards today. In order to read a card, someone has to send one. So, get the ball rolling and send out some cards today. Chances are, you will get a few back.

========================================

Well! Honestly, my first instinct for this day is the card readers that let you in to each park…those wonderful biometric scanners, then I thought of the security line, and the people who simply refuse to learn that they have to open EVERY zippered section of their bag… *shudder*

Then, bizarrely, my thoughts turned towards the Backstage Magic tour I took, and the way cast members had to scan in their uniform / costumes using their ID badges…but that's too obscure.

Finally, I land on the Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom…specifically, the Madame Leota crystal ball seance scene. Nothing evokes the feeling of a creepy tarot session that the floating head-in-a-ball can conjure!

So, on this Card Reading Day, I salute you, The Haunted Masion!
