getting current date with select?

I know that it is possible to get current date/time in triggers using "now", "today", however - does some tricky way exist how to get current date using select ( e.g. select ... from RDB$DATABASE ), I mean - using only SQL (apparently - one can write UDF, however - the better solution in my case could be without the definition of new UDFs).

Thanks in advance.

You are looking for CURRENT_TIMESTAMP (or CURRENT_DATE or CURRENT_TIME).
