What Are You Doing to Celebrate the Idea of Progress Day?


Many of the Blogonetosphere 2.0's finest have been celebrating The Idea of Progress Day. Here are some examples:

-I have already mentioned Katrocket, who gets a second mention for being the first to post today. She has made a point of celebrating in several different ways, one of which being going commando today.

-Splotchy has written a poem in my honor. He has also proposed that I am in fact a Russian mathematician, or at least disguised as one.

-Pistols at Dawn has awarded me some kind of award. I am unclear as to the nature of the award, but not only will I accept it, but I will also speak at the awards dinner.

-The nefarious McGone has created a bobblehead in my likeness. As we have not discussed the licensing of my image, this only presents further proof of his depravity. He must be stopped.

-Monica has made me a sock puppet, although she is unable to photograph it as of yet. I anxiously await its unveiling.

-Valerie has apparently silkscreened t-shirts. I want one, spelling errors or not.

-Suze contemplated People Magazine's error in accidentally awarding Matt Damon 'Sexiest Man of the Year' over The Idea of Progress.

But the day is far from over. Have I missed your celebratory act?

You signed your likeness rights over to me weeks ago after knocking back a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20.

However, now that I think about it, that may have been that mathmetician that Splotchy was talking about...

I hope you are feeling the love today.

I am.

*sniff sniff*

This is such a beautiful blogosphere.

I wandered around the Art Institute, listened to my iPod, went grocery shopping and neared 40,000 words. Almost like any other day, which is to say that I celebrate your existence every day.

oh, add "laid on the sarcasm" to that list of activities.

Happy Idea of Progress Day! O joyous day! Is there a tree lighting ceremony or something? Did I miss it?

I celebrated by blasting Also Sprach Zarathustra at the crack of dawn for the entire neighborhood to behold.

Well done, sir. The world was a more joyous place for you yesterday.

Damn! I can't believe I missed all the fun.

I celebrated by not stepping foot in work. I thank you for this holiday and the extra warm socks I was wearing. Amen.

Kim and I celebrated by donning our Motörhead t-shirts and cheap sunglasses and toasting TIoP Day with a nice red wine. Didn't everybody?
