I got a 2010 calendar (produced by HP) in the mail today from a supplier. Every day of the year has a special note and this past Tuesday was listed as "H.A.L. 9000 Became Operational, Urbana, Illinois (1997)". So I apologize to Col for missing his birthday.

Today is "Dress Up Your Pet Day".

Last Thursday must have been for maecuff. It was "I'm Not Going to Take It Anymore Day". Although 25-March is "Kick Butts Day" which might be for her, as well

For Canadians, 23-Feb is "Curling is Cool Day". Though I suppose that might be for hairdressers, too.

I think that the best one I've come across so far is 3-March - "What If Cats and Dogs Had Opposable Thumbs? Day".

Just ask and I'll clue you in on any particular day you'd like to know about.

Obviously its of huge significance...but just curious if any other earth shattering thing is going on that day

:D

You coward DM.

I'm horrified that you didn't put in the entire quote.

Yes I know it starts off as [b]Let It Go Day[/b] but the entire quote is [b][i]Let it go to destroy a Vaio Day.[/i][/b] ;)

Shelly isn't Mae so she's no where near as scary. ;)

"National Deep Dish Pizza Day"

Since it's "National", I'm guessing it might be U.S. only, but I'm sure it's open to interpretation.

by nexs

Well i might have to make a short trip to the US for a deep dish pizza...

It's top priority, the calendar dictates all!

13-Jan - "Rubber Duckie Day"
16-July - "Hot Dog Night"

I hope people keep in mind that I'm only the messenger. I didn't make these up, so I can't be blamed if someone is unhappy with his special day!

by deadly ernest

birthday, and 16 July is my ex-wife's and since she's such a female canine, a link to dogs is appropriate - it also clearly over states her cooking ability as she manages to burn hot dogs.

Besides being Claudia Shiffer's birthday, that is. Rowr-rowr! B-)

edit: not to mention Tim Burton and Sean Connery. I hang with famous people!

It's "Kiss and Make Up Day"

Could that be the band Kiss and all their make-up? Only Gene Simmons knows for sure.

Face Book Account. ;)

Though I would like to hear what it says about the Ides of March.

Maybe I can give my mother hell over that one as it's her birthday. :D

"World Consumer Rights Day"

Stay away from Microsoft sites that day, I guess.

by oh smeg

That day is of Huge Significance.

It's actually [b]Crush/Kill/Destroy a Vaio Day.[/b] ]:)

I know what you'll be doing to celebrate your Burfday then don't I? :0

Kicking your behind....

1-Feb is listed as "Spunky Old Broads Day" and...

8-Feb, the following Monday is "Boy Scouts Founded (1910)".

So the image in my head is GG on top of the boy scouts. She does seem to be enjoying it......

I love chocolate covered cherries! Now I know why. Very appropriate.

Provided you use Swiss Chocolate and forget the cherries. ;)

What can I say that my favorite Bumper sticker doesn't.

[b]I Kill for Chocolate.[/b] :D

That explains why I always want to buy chocolate-covered cherries between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
