Ron!n,

april 3:
today is national autism awareness day (saw it on the early show)
1-The Pony Express begins delivering the mail. (1860)
2-Don't go to work unless it's fun day (anyone who goes should be instantly promoted)
i will be trying something with this post instead of posting a link that explains the holiday i shall explain it because if it were me i wouldn't bother opening it)
so don't go to work day:
Don't Go to Work Unless it's Fun Day might be your day to sleep in. If this day falls on a Saturday or Sunday when you are normally off of work, it's an easy day to participate in. Otherwise, make sure you get your boss' approval prior to participating.
Wouldn't it be nice to wake up in the morning and decide whether you will go to work? If it is going to be fun at work, you get up and go. Otherwise, you turn over and go back to sleep.
Employer Tip: To increase attendance today, we suggest you consider things that will make it fun to go to work. Like the promise of a paycheck, benefits,..............
Warning: We strongly suggest that anyone thinking of not going into work, clears it with their boss first! Special and bizarre days are fun to participate in. But, not at the risk of losing your job.
this day seems to have no origin so probably s useless post
3- tweed day (should i even explain it???)
well youre supposed to wear a tweed jacket end of story
p.s.: does anyone read these posts seriously i want to know all in favor of continuing these posts say "I"

What if you are the boss? Do you still have to not go to work?
Regarding autism - what an interesting coincidence. Yesterday's headline news had two autism-related events:
Autistic children linked to same sperm donor - CNN.com
Jenny McCarthy: My son's recovery from autism - CNN.com
It's makes for a rather-interesting read...

1949 NATO founded by the original 12 nations
1975 Bill Gates and Paul Allen found an insignificant little partnership. They call it Microsoft.
that's 33 years ago today folks - or to us techie hexadecimalists 21 today
I therefore declare today a global techie holiday
