Anyone know what March 1st is?

[Bumbles]

Some friend of mine said there is a new holiday to counteract Valentine's Day on March 1st ad I was wondering if this was true.

Or iis it just another faux holiday? LIke chicken enchilada day or something.

However, I don't trust Hallmark to start making up and marketing these new holidays

I know it is the B-day of the person I dislike most in the world. Yet for some reason I doubt there would be a national holiday to celebrate it. If there was I think I might have to defect!!

Sounds like a 2nd chance sort of holiday, for all the poor saps who forgot or went to late to the mall on Valentine's Day.

Well, I did a search and I found the following:


Share a Smile Day
National Pig Day
Peanut Butter Lover's Day
St. David's Day
Anniversary of the establishment of the first National Park (Yellowstone)


I bet there are more that I couldn't find...
