Holiday greetings thread

[ClayJar]

There once was a Dork from SB
Who said, with his heart full of glee
It' time to go diving, so I just can't stay
And by the way, happy Limerick Day

"You're kidding!" I thought, by the way
"There's no way I'd miss such a day!"
Imagine my stare
When a search found it there
And sure 'nough on the 12th of May!

HAPPY LIMERICK DAY, INDEED!
(May 12, 2009)

Happy National Maritime Day
(Friday May 22)

This is one we should all be observing. I think a day off to dive is in order.

I so agree. Unfortunately, I'm not American and my boss doesn't scuba dive (I've encouraged him to however).

How pathetic! You all FORGOT MEMORIAL Day!!!

I didn't forget it, but I couldn't get a post here in time. I was too busy *with* Memorial Day, which I certainly could never forget.

(The day after is 52 weeks before the holiday, so it would fail the "no more than a week before" thing, which is why I didn't bring it up.)

Actually, I think we all remembered, but I believe it falls into the capital-H holiday catagory and figured everyone knows that one. See OP:

Dork Divers Have Fun. That said, who wouldn't want additional [-]excuses[/-] opportunities for having *extra* fun? With that in mind, I figured I'd start a thread for us to post holiday greetings, but not just for the capital-H Holidays. No, we need not limit ourselves in our holidays, just as we need not artificially limit our gear selection.......................

Now, it turns out today is National Go Barefoot Day! So celebrate with them toes in the sand!

I did. It says, "not just for the capital-H Holidays" which means that capital-H Holidays are still good to go but ALSO look for additional ones.
Like you did here:

National Go Barefoot Day!

Good one!

I stand corrected.

And now I suggest we all celebrate Friday, June 5, since it's
"National Donut Day"

National Doughnut Day was established in 1938 by the Chicago Salvation Army to raise much-needed funds during the Great Depression, and to honor the work of World War I Salvation Army volunteers who prepared doughnuts and other foods for thousands of soldiers.
