TGIF

Today is Friday and many say "Thank God it's Friday", but truth be known it was named after a goddess. Actually two goddesses, but it is more of a debate than a shared honor.  One being Freya, the goddess whose sacred day is Friday while others say Friday is Frigga Day, named after Frigga, the wife of Odin who is a major god in Norse Mythology. So, again, trivia hits us just before the week end. On a final note, the Italian court said, as recent as December 2007, that a baby couldn't be named Friday. We can still say "TGIF", but just remember it's "Thank Goddess, it's Friday".
