I'm on Milk Chocolate Day. icon_sad.gif I don't like milk chocolate.

One of my favorite holidays for years has been National Sneak Some Zucchini onto Your Neighbor's Porch Day on August 8th.

Anyway, if you want holidays from around the world - both normal & wacky - go to www.earthcalendar.net.

You might also try e-card sites, I've gotten many of my fun holidays from BlueMountain, including NSSZOYNP Day.
