Month of the Month Club

Last Saturday on Greasy Kid Stuff, Belinda and Hova mentioned that it was  National Cow Appreciation Day. Damn--I missed it again. 

We're more than halfway through July already, and it turns out I didn't know bull crap about this month.Yes, it's National Hotter than Hell Month, but I recently found out that July is also:

National Ice Cream Month
National Hot Dog Month
National Baked Beans Month
National Corn Month
National Fresh Fruit Month
National Blueberry Month
National American Beer Month
National Picnic Month (Go with this if you can't be bothered to celebrate all those individually.)

Lest you think that July is just a good month for sitting on your ass and eating, which it is, think again, because it's also:

National Women's Motorcycle Month (Ok, you can sit on your ass and eat while you celebrate this one.)
National Family Fitness Month
National Parks and Recreation Month
National Cell Phone Courtesy Month (Also known as Shut the Fuck Up Month.)
National Foreign Language Month
National Mobility Month
National ADA Month
National Purposeful Parenting Month (Also known as Shut the Fuck Up Month.)
National Literacy Month
National UV Safety Month
National Sight Preservation Month
National Read An Almanac Month (This is how I found out about Hotter than Hell Month.)
National Doghouse Repairs Month
National Tennis Month
National Hitchhiking Month
National Hyperhidrosis "No Sweat" Education Month (But the Nation Not-sweating is Canada, so it doesn't count.)
National Voluntary Blood Donation Month (Good, because I hate it when it's involuntary. Also, it's in Manila, so it doesn't count.)

If none of these floats your boat, July is National Anti-Boredom Month. And confusingly, it's also National Boredom Month. Whatever. As long as it involves sitting on your ass and eating, I'm there.

Next month: More Months!

There's usually a Nude Beach Week around the middle of the month, too. Plus Roky Erickson's and Screamin' Jay Hawkins's and Linda Rondstadt's birthday on the fifteenth.

Thanks for the heads up on Nude Beach Week--good to know for public safety reasons.

However, please note that this is not the Week of the Month Club or the Birthday of the Month Club. This is a very tightly organized blog and we can't just have everyone free-forming all over the place.

I think what you have here is a photo of a cow with the painful condition known as mastitis -- a result of being pumped full of hormones and pumped by machine (after having your child taken from you) so that people can drink the milk intended for your child. Please don't mock the results of such cruelty. Please visit http://www.milksucks.com to learn why milk is bad for you and even worse for the cows from whose bodies it is taken.
