Happy Public Sleeping Day

When : Always February 28th


Public Sleeping Day is an opportunity to sleep in public. We can think of a whole lot of places to sleep in the public eye. And, today is the day to do it.

You can sleep on a park bench. You can doze on a blanket on the beach. Some people may opt to sleep on the job. They do so at their own risk. Have you ever caught twenty winks on a bus or subway traveling to or from work? Sure, we all have.

Wherever you choose to sleep today, we hope it is peaceful and restful.

Origin of Public Sleeping Day:
Our research did not find the creator, or the origin of this day. When it came time to document and record this day, apparently the creator was sleeping on the job.

National Anthem Day

When : Always March 3rd


The Star-Spangled Banner is the national anthem of the United States of America. It was written by Francis Scott Key. National Anthem Day celebrates this song, and the rich history behind its creation. The song officially became our national anthem on March 3, 1931.


Celebrate today by proudly flying the flag. Also listen to and sing the Star-Spangled Banner.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A rich history..........

Many people think the Star Spangled Banner was written during the Revolutionary War. It was actually written during the war of 1812 (1812-1814).

In August 1814, the British army detained Dr. William Beanes as a prisoner of war. He was a friend of Francis Scott Key. On Sept. 13, 1814, Francis Scott Key and a U.S. negotiator boarded a British vessel where Beanes was being held. He negotiated his friends' release. But then, Francis Scott Key was detained that day along with the negotiator. They were held until after the attack on Fort McHenry, which guarded the harbor and city of Baltimore.

He watched the bombardment of the fort from the ship. The next morning, he was ecstatic to see that the American flag was still flying over Fort McHenry. This historic event inspired Francis Scott Key to write "The Star-Spangled Banner" the following day (September 14, 1814).

Happy Hug a GI Day

When : Always March 4th


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.

Our research did not find the creator, or the origin of this day. If it was a GI who created this day, we'd like to give him, or her, a big hug.

Reader Comments:

"I think the origin of the holiday is because of the date. It’s the only date in the calendar that is an order…March Forth! It’s a military thing." Sabrina Honda, USAF

National Crown Roast of Pork Day

When : Always March 7th


You certainly must be kidding, right!? National Crown Roast of Pork Day... Why you ask?

Well, frankly, we do not know. And, why not just Roast Pork Day? Why does it have to be a crown roast pork?

What we do know, is that it is National Crown Roast of Pork Day, a special day to cook and eat pork. To participate in this day it must be crown roast pork. Any other just will not do.


Have a great day!




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Origin of "National Crown Roast of Pork Day":
Our research did not find the creator, or the origin of this day. About the only reference to this day are from blogs on the Internet, poking fun at this important day. It is the .... of many jokes. You can also find Ecards (of course) to send celebrating this day

This is referred to as a "National" day. However, we did not find any congressional records or presidential proclamations for this day. Could congress really have spent precious time to make this a national day?

Happy Middle Name Pride Day
When : Always March 10th


Middle Name Pride Day honors 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's two big reasons to be proud of your middle name:

First, there are plenty of John Smiths and and Mary Jones. Its 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 honor 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 honor 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!

Note: Middle Name Pride Day is uniquely different from Name Yourself Day.
