United Nations Day

Today is United Nations Day, which celebrates the day the United Nations Charter entered into force in 1945 after five member-states signed the resolution.  To date, 192 nations are members of the United Nations.  Though not many people in the United States even know of this day's existence, it has actually been an international holiday since 1971.  So how am I going to celebrate United Nations Day?

By watching this amazing (and terribly outdated) clip from my childhood:



Happy United Nations Day, friends!  I hope peace will be the sentiment of the day for you and others around the world.
