Racing Meeces, Reading Comics, and the Rest

Hey peeps! We're back once again with a variety of holidays that I'm sure you'll just adore. So, let's get started with our holidays for Tuesday, August 28: 
First on our list is one that I'm sure most people will recognize: Dream Day (MLK Speech). Today marks the anniversary of the day that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. made his famous "I Have a Dream" speech from the march on Washington. Here's a quick video of the speech:

Always quite inspirational!

Next up we have a rather strange holiday called Crackers over the Keyboard Day. According to the creators of this holiday at Wellcat (the ones who feel like copyrighting holidays is a million dollar idea, give me a fucking break already), you are supposed to take crackers or cookies to work with you and eat them at your desk. Apparently, no one has told these people that the vast majority of people already do that anyway! So, we changed it up a bit:

We tend to take things a little too literally around here!

Third on our list is National Bow Tie Day. Now, anyone who knows the Holiday Hero very well will tell you that he is certainly a fan of the bow tie look (I know, understatement of the century). So, once again, here's my handsome bow-tied guy with our good friend Justin:

They do love the bow tie!

I also feel like it is an important thing for everyone to know how to tie a bow tie, so here is the video that we used to develop our talents as bow tie connoisseurs: 

It works so well.

Thanks to Jason for calling it to my attention that today is also Women Reading Comics in Public Day! Where would we be without this momentous holiday? Women are already reading comics in public anyway, so there might as well be a holiday commemorating it. To celebrate, Julie and I went out to our local Barnes & Noble store and read our hearts out!

 Zombie comic? Of course!

 She couldn't look away!

The lady who took this picture was rather excited about finding out today's holiday!

The last item on our list is Race Your Mouse around the Icons Day. This one plays out exactly as you would assume (mostly because it's another from our "friends" at Wellcat). If you're on the computer and waiting to do something, today is the day to literally race (read: weave) your mouse around your desktop's icons. And that's exactly what I did:

Yep it's just that dumb!

And that's all we've got for today. See you tomorrow!

CS, out.
