While being filmed for the BBC documentary 24 Hours: the World of John and Yoko, John Lennon reads a newspaper article about article about a supposed assassination attempt that would occur on 6 March, according to someone who had contacted Brian Epstein via a Ouija board.

This is incorrect.

#OTD in Irish History | 3 December:

1366 – With the sliotar topping 93mph (150km/h) from a good strike, hurling is the fastest game on grass. It was first played here at least 3,000 years ago, and first crops up in print in statutes banning its mayhem on this date. Ancient chroniclers report violent days-long matches between whole towns, but these might simply have been battles. There’s not a whole lot of difference if you think…

National Roof Over Your Head Day

At the end of a long day, there’s nothing quite like coming back to a warm house, with family and friends. When you’ve been working, or its cold outside, or even when you’ve just gone out for a walk, home is the place you dream of coming back to.

But for some people that’s not an option that exists, there is no roof over their head to come home to. National Roof Over Your Head Day reminds you to take a moment to appreciate the fact that you have a place to hang your hat, or if you don’t, to keep working for that most important of dreams.

History of National Roof Over Your Head Day

Born out of a response to the number of homeless people that are out there, even in highly developed first world countries, National Roof Over Your Head Day serves to bring awareness to the fact that there are so many people out there who don’t have this basic need.

100 million people are estimated to not have a roof over their head, and of those that do, 1.6 billion are seen as having inadequate housing for themselves and their family.

What National Roof Over Your Head Day really is, is a call to charity and social awareness. Homelessness is a real problem, but it can be overcome. There have been a lot of creative moves made to help alleviate this problem, with one notable method being rolled out in Salt Lake City, Utah.

The city discovered it was paying $20,000 a year to handle their homeless issue, including policing, arrests, healthcare, jail time, just to name a few. So instead they built homes they could put their homeless into for just $7,800 a year. Since then, homeless in the city has dropped by 72%, all while saving the town money.

How to Celebrate National Roof Over Your Head Day

The best way to celebrate National Roof Over Your Head Day is to get out there and start being a solution to the homeless problem. Sure, there aren’t many of us who could actually afford to house the homeless on our own, but there are steps we could take to help motivate our leaders to do it. After all, look at the numbers above in Utah, those numbers ring true across the United States, and in fact across the world.

You can also take presents off the giving trees that are often put up at Christmas, or just drop a few dollars in the cup of the next homeless person you pass. National Roof Over Your Head Day is about giving others opportunity, and being thankful for what we have.

"Boring!"

That's what I would say when the news segment switched to the sports news. My housemate used to get annoyed at that.

Nowadays, I still watch the news as I'm cooking or doing the dishes. I've recently been able to get back into the habit after depression muddled my mind for several long months, inhibiting me from staying up to date with current events.

"Some people find it interesting," she'd say. And always I would reply, "Sure, but I don't."

In my kitchen I am now alone most evenings, so I no longer express my dissatisfaction with the sports news quite as much. I still bristle at it, but significantly less than I do at the wifi hindering the broadcast, so that I have to dry my hands and walk my laptop to the other side of the room for a few seconds.

Eventually, after listening in with me as I cooked and cleaned our communal kitchen, my housemate would join me and adopt my school of thought.

"Boring!"

We all have a legacy, I guess.
