Alien Robot Zombies: Happy Hobbit Day

Tuesday, September 22, 2009

Last Saturday, September 19, was International Talk Like A Pirate Day. I love this holiday for many reasons: it's whimsical, it brings out the kid in me, it's fun to talk funny, and at the end of the day pirates are just plain cool.

With that in mind, I went searching for more of the same. This is what I discovered:

January 24 - Global Belly Laugh Day
January 30 - Draw a Dinosaur Day
February 14 - Horny Werewolf Day (apparently, Valentine's Day has some pagan origins...)
March 1 - Alien Robot Zombie Day (OK, I just made that one up, but use the opportunity to celebrate quasi-science and pseudo-history)
March 32 - April Fools' Day
April 11 - Superhero Day
April 22 - Vampire Day (Eve of St. George's Day in Romania)
May 25 - Universal Day of the Jedi (a.k.a. Star Wars Day) and also Towel Day (from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy)
June 28 - National Paul Bunyan Day
July 1 - Universal Yeti Day
July 2 - World UFO Day (in honor of the July 2, 1947 Roswell Incident)
July 25 - National Day of the American Cowboy
August 4 - Robot Pride Day
September 19 - International Talk Like A Pirate Day
September 22 - Hobbit Day
October 8 - National Fluffernutter Day
October 9 - Viking Day (a.k.a. Leif Erikson Day)
Second Saturday in October - World Zombie Day
October 30 - Devil's Night (a Detroit special)
November 3 - Godzilla Day
November 17 - Wookiee Life Day
December 5 - Day of the Ninja
December 23 - Festivus

So take that, stupid Ground Hog Day!

Son and daughters are the phenomenal endowments of nature. Being immutable segments of our society, they are the building blocks of familial relations.
