5 Things for Thursday
It's going to be a beautiful day to celebrate Leave the Office Earlier Day.
1. Weather. Looks like an absolutely beautiful day on tap. National Weather Service says: Sunny, with a high near 79. West wind between 11 and 17 mph.
2. It is awards night tonight at Central Bucks East High School. The ceremony starts at 7 p.m. in the school auditorium.
3. Two local groups are sponsoring golf outings Friday. The starts at 12:30 p.m., and is followed by a cocktail hour and dinner, and the starts at 1 p.m.

4. Today is National Leave the Office Earlier Day. Celebrating it should be pretty obvious. (It's a real "day," promoted by productivity expert Laura Stack, who advocates working no more than 8 hours today in an effort to get people to work smarter, not harder.) Sounds smart to me.
5. Today was a momentous day in history. The Civil War ended in 1865. Babe Ruth retired in 1935. And Timothy McVeigh was convicted of the Oklahoma City bombing in 1997.
