Appreciate a Dragon Day: Sunday, 16 January 2011

Sunday, January 16th, 2011 is the eighth annual Appreciate a Dragon Day.

I assure you, dear reader, that I share your complete disdain for silly made-up holidays synthesized by a committee and fabricated from some unholy admixture of boredom and profit motive. In this particular case, however, 1) Dragons, 2)  the holiday was invented by an actual person, to promote a book (and not to enrich a greeting card company), plus 3) Dragons.
