Thank Your
Mail Carrier Day
Neither snow nor rain
nor heat nor gloom of night
stays these couriers
from the swift completion
of their appointed rounds.

Today we say happy birthday to Alice Cooper (1948). Hey, Mr. Cooper, care to celebrate with a stuffed mushroom, while wearing galoshes and listening to Liberace? Do it and you’ll be celebrating a bunch of today’s holidays. Or of course it could be Liberace (1919) in rain boots eating appetizers in honor of Alice.
Over on our calendar of a Month of Smiley Silliness it’s also Create a Vacuum Day. OK, it’s really called Vacuum Cleaner Day, but I do hate vacuums and vacuuming, so I modified the name. The very sound of a vacuum cleaner makes me carsick (hoover sick?). The neighbors know I’m not at home if they hear a vacuum running. But, I do have a Vacuum Smiley, actually several smiling vacuum cleaners!
BTW, the Smileys and holidays on a month full of Smiley Silliness are all different than the ones you see here on the website’s Daily Smiley.
