Happiness Happens Day
Whatever the reason you’ll find lots of smiles today. Everywhere. On everyone.*
So join the fun and happiness today. Sponsored by The Society of Happy People, here’s some suggestions on celebrating the day…
In August on the 8th (the official Happiness Happens Day) or anytime during August for Happiness Happens Month wear your SILVER shades, donate your SILVER coins, pay someone’s toll, bus or subway fare, buy a soda, or take up a donation for your favorite charity, or pass out SILVER kisses. Why SILVER? Because not-so-secretly happy people have a way of finding the SILVER lining in even the darkest clouds.
Particularly Preposterous Packaging Day
Ever purchased something and then asked yourself - how do I open this?
Well today highlights the problem with the predominately preposterous packaging we’ve all encountered. Bulletproof plastic? What moron thought of that? Enquiring minds want to know - why?
National Night Out
Raise awareness about crime prevention and help promote partnerships between communities and local police departments on this national crime-fighting night.
National Underwear Day
Its bloomers. And boxers. And wifebeaters. Oh my!!
From Marlon Brando rending his undershirt in Streetcar, to the sexual revolution, to Helmut Newton’s lingerie-clad vamps, underwear has come a long way from being coyly referred to as “unmentionables” in American culture. A watershed event was the unveiling of Calvin Klein’s giant underwear billboard ads in Times Square in the Eighties - a statement of unflinching exposure that almost single-handedly transformed the public’s perception of underwear from ‘necessary undergarment’ to a brazen gesture of style and freedom…*
So join the fun and drop those drawers, take off those tank tops, and show the world your undies!**
** Please, please heed your momma’s warning and remember: don’t leave the house without clean underwear! Especially today.
