October 21: Apple Day and 3 more

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorIt's October 21st, and I've been camped outside a phone store since Tuesday, because Apple Day means the new model drops, and I'm first in line!

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorChip. Apple Day began on October 21st, 1990, at an event in Covent Garden in London. Per Wikipedia, the charity Common Ground started it.

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorA charity made a phone? I love that for them.

4. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorIt's apples, Chip. The fruit. Orchards, local varieties, apple games in gardens.

5. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorGames! So the line outside the store is a tournament, and I'm already seeded.

6. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThere are also cookery demonstrations, and apple identification, where people work out which apple they are holding.

7. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorI can do that. This one is a red one.

8. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorSome village fairs sell many hundreds of varieties, plus juice and cider. I once declined a cider in a very small embassy.

9. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorHundreds of varieties! I'm going to need a bigger cake and a much bigger sleeping bag.

10. 

    Gloria Vance · World News AnchorFine. Come sit down.

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorGloria, I just bit the first one. Why won't it unlock with my face?
