Are you a cookie monster? Americans eagerly await the annual Girls Scout cookie drive. It teaches the girls valuable skills, and generates income to support girl scouting activities. And, you get to munch on a variety of delicious cookies. Most people buy several boxes.
Worship of Tools Day –
There are few things that the male population worships more than his tools. To some, a tool is a natural extension of their arm. So, Worship of Tools Day is a logical day of celebration. And, it’s definitely a guy thing. Please note however, there are more than a few ladies who love to work with their hands, and find today to be an important holiday too.
Need a birthday or Christmas gift idea for one of the “boys” in the family? You’re never lacking for tool ideas when you visit the local hardware store.
Celebrate today by working with tools, and buying a tool or two. Receiving a tool as a gift today, makes this truly a special day.
Middle Name Pride Day
Middle Name Pride Day honours the seldom used middle name that often sets you apart from others. It was selected with care, so you should be proud of it.
Here are two big reasons to be proud of your middle name:
First, there are plenty of John Smiths and and Mary Jones. It’s the middle name your parents gave you that makes your name unique.
Second, your parents chose your middle name with great care. It often was selected to honour a friend or relative. That person may have possessed certain characteristics that they want you to inherit.
Do you know why your were given your middle name? If not, todays the day to find out. If it was in honour of someone, find out a little more about that person.
We encourage you to enjoy your middle name on Middle Name Pride Day, and every day!

Try to stay calm. Take a deep breath; for today is Panic Day. Can you handle today? Good, we were worried for a moment.
Hopefully, everything is going just swell in your life, and you have no need for this day. But, if problems and troubles are looming, try to hold off hitting the panic button until this day arrives.
Don’t worry, don’t fret and above all, don’t panic. However, if ever there was a day to panic, today is that day.

Be Nasty Day –
It’s Be Nasty Day!

Dentist’s Day –
Dentist’s Day is a day to display a big, toothy smile. After all, your Dentist plays a role in that big, bright smile. He’s an important person in keeping your smile bright, and your teeth and mouth healthy.
If your Dentist is such an important person, then why are we so scared of the next dental visit? Is it perhaps the fear of discovering a cavity? Maybe he will find the beginnings of gum disease? The fear of the dentist ranks right up there with…. the fear of pulling teeth!
Among the ways to celebrate today are:
- Giving your dentist a big “TY”
- Sending your dentist an Ecard or stationary card
- Making a dental appointment (if you haven’t been there in a while)
- Start using dental floss daily
- Improving your daily dental care routine
- Showing off your great smile
Multiple Personality Day
Multiple Personality Day is an opportunity to get in touch with yourselves.
Someone with a split personality has two personalities. Someone with multiple personalities has more than two personalities. It’s a psychological disorder that we hope none of our readers have.
Don’t be surprised to find yourself surrounded by people who are talking to themselves today. You might find yourself talking to yourself, too!
When you wish someone “Happy Multiple Personalty Day”, you may need to do so multiple times, once for each personality.
Hug a GI Day –
Today is a day that we all can embrace. It’s “Hug a GI Day”. Give a great big hug to any and all GIs you see today. The men and women in our armed forces deserve our thanks and appreciation.
GI’s perform an invaluable service to our country. They risk their lives for our freedom, and to keep us safe. A simple hug is a small thanks for this vital service to our country.
