I decided to do this as soon as I got into work this morning, because then no one would have to witness my awkward attempts at trying to take a selfie while eating a cracker and holding my keyboard to make sure it was in the picture. Goldfish for breakfast!
Biologically however, our keyboard may be more of a nature preserve for germs than the office toilet. The latter, at least, gets a nightly once-over from the cleaning crew. Your keyboard may never have been cleaned, making it a breeding ground for all sorts of bugs. A study by a University of Arizona biologist found computer keyboards contained more germs per square inch than did toilet seats in the same office; 67 times as many! - See more at: http://www.greenkeyllc.com/blog/do-the-keyboard-shake-to-celebrate-crackers-over-the-keyboard-day/#s

That's not a reason to call out the hazmat unit. Most of the germs are, well, germs that are everywhere and to which we all have some degree of immunity, especially since those on your keyboard come mostly from you. As microbiologist Dr Peter Wilson told the BBC when a study in the U.K. turned up results similar to the Arizona study: "If you look at what grows on computer keyboards, believe it or not, it's more or less a reflection of what's in your nose and in your gut." - See more at: http://www.greenkeyllc.com/blog/do-the-keyboard-shake-to-celebrate-crackers-over-the-keyboard-day/#sthash.8TBUy7P

Colorful processions through the streets and firework displays mark the celebration of the Feast of the Assumption in Italy, as they do in Italian-American communities throughout the United States. In Sicily and rural areas outside Rome, a bowing procession is the day’s main event. A statue of the Virgin Mary is carried through the town to a ceremonial arch of flowers, where a group of people holding a statue of Christ awaits her arrival. Both statues are inclined toward each other three times, and then the Christ figure precedes the figure of Mary back to the parish church for a special benediction.
