National Ice Cream Day
Today's the chance to eat all the ice cream you want and make no apologies for it. Substitute ice cream for milk in your cereal at breakfast. Plop a dollop in your morning coffee. Trade your lunchtime turkey sandwich for an ice cream sandwich instead. Well, maybe don't take it that far or you'll be so sick of ice cream you won't want it for the rest of the year. And that would be a real pity.

Yellow Pig Day
This day was started by two math students who began to go a bit bonkers from an extensive study of the number 17. Somewhere in the midst of their work, and allegedly while taking a break to go to the bar, they came up with a whole story about yellow pigs with 17 toes and 17 eyelashes. Over the years their crazy story has taken on a life of its own with Yellow Pig Day, a celebration of mathematics and a day to sing yellow pig songs. We don't know any of these songs off hand. Perhaps Yellow Pig of Texas? Yellow Pigmarine? Feel free to make up your own.

I had the pleasure of chaffering a Bridgeman to Band Camp this morning.
Why won't Hot in Cleveland play on HuluPlus? Episode 14 is available to select. It starts, plays the first commercial and then quits. Goes back to main menu.
