Lucky Charmer

Lucky Charms is a brand of breakfast cereal produced by the General Mills that is 25% multi-colored marshmallow bits and know for its leprechaun mascot, Lucky.

The cereal was created in 1963 by Paul Bunyon. An advertising company employed by General Mills suggested marketing the new cereal around the idea of charm bracelets. Following launch, the General Mills marketing department found that sales performed dramatically better if the composition of the marshmallows changed periodically.

The first boxes of Lucky Charms cereal contained pink hearts, yellow moons, orange stars, and green clovers. The lineup has changed first to include blue diamonds in 1975, then purple horseshoes in 1984, followed by red balloons in 1989, rainbows in 1992, pots of gold in 1994, leprechaun hats in 1996, shooting stars in 1998, and hourglass in 2008. Generally when new shapes are added, older marshmallows are phased out. The first shape to be removed were the yellow moons and blue diamonds.

In 2006, the assortment had changed to purple horseshoes; red balloons; blue moons; orange and white shooting stars; yellow and orange pots of gold; pink, yellow, and blue rainbows; two-tone green leprechaun hats; pink hearts (the only shape to survive since the beginning); with the most recent addition being the return of the clovers in 2004. In early June 2006, General Mills introduced a new Lucky Charms marshmallow, Magic Mirror marshmallows. In 2008, yellow and orange hourglass marshmallows were introduced.

For all things Lucky, see Wiki.

Quarterrific

The 50 State Quarters program was the release of a series of commemorative coins by the United States Mint. Between 1999 and 2008, it featured each of the 50 individual U.S. states on unique designs for the reverse of the quarter and will feature the District of Columbia and five of the nation's territories in 2009.

The program was conceived in hopes of creating a new generation of coin collectors. Roughly half of the U.S. population collected the coins, either casually or as a serious pursuit. Thus far, the U.S. federal government has made a profit of $4.6 billion from collectors taking the coins out of circulation.

See all the designs at Wikipedia.

Plymouth Rockz

Plymouth Rock is the traditional site of disembarkation of the Mayflower Pilgrims who founded Plymouth Colony in 1620. The rock is not referred to in the Journal Of Plymouth Plantation in fact the first reference to the Pilgrims landing on a rock is found 121 years after it happened. The rock is currently located on the shore of Plymouth Harbor in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

The location of the Plymouth Rock (a glacial erratic) at the foot of Cole's Hill is said to have been passed from generation to generation. When plans were started to build a wharf at the Pilgrim's landing site in 1741, a 94 year old Elder of the church named Thomas Faunce (also the town record keeper), identified the precise rock his father had told him was the first solid land the Pilgrims set foot upon.

When the townspeople of Plymouth decided to move the rock in 1774, it was split into two halves. The bottom portion was left behind at the wharf and the top half was relocated to the town's meeting-house.

Kermit's Namesake

Extra trivia for yah, I just thought this was neat:

Theodore Kermit Scott Jr. was an American and professor of philosophy and also happened to be the childhood friend of Muppets creator, Jim Henson.

Kermit Scott grew up in Mississippi right alongside Jim Henson. They were said to have been close friends who spent a lot of time at the creek.

Henson eventually moved away from his hometown and lost contact with Scott. It was not until years later that Scott learned Henson had named one of his most famous Muppets, Kermit the Frog, after his childhood friend. Scott was reportedly "delighted" but never sought to gain publicity from the connection.
