These made up holidays are hilarious. Who comes up with these things anyway?
I guess this is secular America's version of the old Catholic Saint's Days. Everybody loves a holiday! |

That was a funny one! I enjoyed that. By, the way, the National Scorpio suport day comes only 1 day after my birthday. I am sure my husband and my daughters(my daughter is also a Scorpio)husband would agree with that day!!
