The Handwriting's on the Wall: It's National Pie Day

This special day was established by the Writing
Instrument Manufacturers Association in 1977.
Their motive... to promote the consumption
of pens, pencils, and writing paper.

They chose January 23rd because
it's John Hancock's birthday.

Today is also
National Pie Day
(not to be confused with Pi Day on March 14)
