Happy Floral Design Day! Yay!-ish. Apparently, and I don't know who they greased to make this official, this is an observed holiday in Massachusetts and has been celebrated since 1995 when then Governor William F. Weld proclaimed it to be so. Amazing. I guess I should...you know...arrange some flowers or something today. Well, after reading more information about ways to celebrate today, I can pretty much do anything which involves flowers. Even paint flowers. Woohoo! Maybe I'll spread some holiday cheer with painted flowers far and near. Yeah, that just happened. Make the world a more beautiful place with flowers and see what fun you can come up with today. (That was the cheesiest ending ever. Like it belonged at the end of an episode of Reading Rainbow. Go ahead. Read it in LeVar Burton's voice and be amazed.)
I've got another humdinger of a holiday for you to celebrate today. It's National Engineer's Week Observance Day! Awesomesauce. Umm...well...huh. I swear to God this next section wasn't copy/pasted directly from the National Engineer's Week website. More specifically the section titled: All About Engineering. Engineers use their imagination and analytical skills to invent, design, and build things that matter. They are team players with independent minds who turn ideas into reality. Many become licensed professional engineers (P.E.s) in order to better protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public. By dreaming up creative and practical solutions, engineers are changing the world all the time.
Engineering has been called the “invisible” or “stealth” profession.Everything around us and that we use every day has been engineered in some way, yet we may not see the engineers behind the scenes or know much about engineering. Engineering is not part of our grade school education. Many engineers whose work affects the public become licensed.The engineering field is as varied as engineers themselves. Engineers can design and build superstructures or delicate medical instruments.Engineers are exploring for energy and for new worlds in space. They are designing the environmental controls for an art museum or directing global sales of today’s hottest cars and computers.Who knows where the next great challenges will be? Moving on.
Happy Pancake Day! Free pancakes! Fuck yeah! We should all bow, no, kneel to our IHoP overlords and thank them for bestowing this gift upon mankind and helping to satisfy our ravenous hunger for pancakes. If you don't like pancakes, than you don't like America and you can just get out. I wanted to get more information on Pancake Day and the charitable purpose behind it but apparently people love those cakes of wonder so much the page has crashed. God damn, people. You can't eat the digital pancake. I guess you could lick the screen like a zombie starving for flesh but it just won't have the same taste as an actual pancake in your mouth. If you can make it through the door of an IHoP today and actually sit down to a stack of pancakes please remember to donate after you're done. They give you free cakes and in return you donate some money to help local charities. But if you're starving and broke, take your free pancakes, and don't worry about donating because you are charity. That's not meant to be mean. It's a reality. (Wow, am I really going to end on such a bummer? Yup.) Cheers!
P.S. Sorry about the fucked up font and paragraphs but that engineering section threw everything off. But not because it was copy/pasted. Seriously.
