I liked the suggestions for both his birthday and for the next day’s Boozefest 2007! We must honor that day. Hehe.

Interesting list once again. I apologize for my lack of contributions this month, I have been a bit off of late.

MrManuel: I look forward to your participation in some of these!
Evil-e: Thank you! Actually the fact that you couldn’t think of any ideas inspired me to list a day for “Writer’s Block Awareness”. So technically you did add something to the list!
L.B.: Thank you! Yes, I think this’ll be a fun month.
