Under ordinary circumstances, rather than posting on a Wednesday about a newly found tool, a note about this site would simply disappear into an idea file for a later "Tuesday's Tool" entry. The holiday coming up, however, necessitates posting immediately, as you wouldn't want to miss it!
The tool? OFFICIAL 2006 HOLIDAYS! Daily, Monthly, Weekly, Bizarre, Crazy, Unknown, Silly, Weird, Dumb Observances & Celebrations. While aimed at a young audience, the validation process on this site is much more stringent than on many similar sites out there. Libraries, classrooms, and homeschoolers start your bulletin boards, promotional ideas, and/or lesson plans!
The holiday? Get ready for it! TOMORROW, July 27, is official Take Your Houseplants For a Walk Day. (Could I make this up?) It's also official Walk on Stilts Day. If you really want to cover your bases, perhaps tomorrow you should take your houseplants for a walk while walking on stilts...
Seriously, Friday, July 28, is the Seventh Annual (did you miss the first six?) System Administrator Appreciation Day. As it says on the official page dedicated to this international celebration, "If you can read this, thank your sysadmin." Don't pass up this opportunity to say thank you to a frequently berated and underappreciated group of vitally essential professionals!
