TGIF!
 
Thought of the day: Today doesn't only have a date, but that date is also a command, March 4th spoken sounds the same as March Forth as in, go there!

didactic \dy-DAK-tik; duh-\, adjective:
  1. Fitted or intended to teach; conveying instruction; instructive; teaching some moral lesson; as, "didactic essays."
  2. Inclined to teach or moralize excessively; moralistic.
Didactic comes from Greek didaktikos, "skillful in teaching," from didaktos, "taught," from didaskein, "to teach, to educate."
 
shopped
