In honor of the recently passed Groundhog's Day, which proves that you can make a holiday out of just about anything. Give the date so we know when to celebrate.

National Stressball Day, March 1st. Companies hand out employees new stressballs, managers get new stupid desk toys and if anyone chucks their balls at a coworker it will be an extra 2 weeks of setbacks.

1 February: This is the day when we should all stop and take stock of the fact that one stupid Irish woman lost her wallet (and all her cards) for the second time in four weeks. Let it be a warning to those with shallow pockets.

15th May - International Nick Southall & Brian Eno Day. Cos it's our birthdays! I feel like I'm turning into Brian Eno since I discovered we share birthdays. I feel the desire to drink my own piss.

You mean Brian Peter St John Le Baptiste de la Salle Eno?
Great news, Nick S! I'm happy for you!

Indeed! That Brain Eno! And we Taureans are meant to be so boring and conservative and 'earthy'... My middle name is no longer 'John'. You may now refer to me as Nicholas Bonapart De La Plage Magnifique Revolutionaire Augustas Southall.

DUDE!
My birthday is also May 15th, and I was also really excited to find out I share a birthday with the Eno-ster, and my name is Nick. Quelle coincedence!

― Nick A. (Nick A.), Monday, 3 February 2003 17:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh. My. God.

Nick, that's my best friend's birthday too I think :)

No wonder certain parties who were inhabiting ILX last week apparently confused the two of us. I think a tossed-off comment that I made was the reason you received so much shit from this party, who apparently doesn't understand that more than one person can have the same name. Anyways, sorry you caught all the hate instead of me.

Man, last night I dreamt I was having a wank. Is that wrong?

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 4 February 2003 08:41 (twenty-two years ago)

it's either very very wrong, or very very right.

I'm all in favour of any days involving Brian Eno. And more in favour of people that are turning INTO Eno.

― Livvie, Tuesday, 4 February 2003 10:19 (twenty-two years ago)

(there was an eno documentary on radio 2 at the weekend, and it's probably still available from bbc.co.uk/radio2 website (yes, http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/radio2_aod.shtml?docu3))

my muji calendar has japanese public holidays marked on it. in japanese. i think they are national holidays but they could just be reminders to pay the milkman. or something.

Am I the only one heartily entertained by this entirely-between-dudes-named-Nick-exchange here?
