The day the music died

Term used to describe any day in which a musician of critical acclaim passes on. The term generally refers to the day Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper passed on when their plane crashed, but has in recent times been used to describe the passing of other legendary musicians such as Elvis Presley, John Lennon and most recently, Michael Jackson. The term originated from Don Mclean's song 'American Pie', and the event itself is a very emotional time for the music industry, and of course the many dedicated fans of the icon themselves... but it is important to remember that although they are physically gone, the musical contribution they have made to our lives and the music scene in general shall remain with us always...

The day the music died:

Buddy Holly
The Big Bopper
Ritchie Valens
Elvis Presley
John Lennon
Michael Jackson

R.I.P :(

Please note that my opinion is not above other people: you may have your own musical icons that deserve to be up here, which is perfectly fine- but this only refers to the most famous and recognisable musicians where a day the music died has been made upon their passing.

Groundhog Day Effect

Based on the movie "Groundhog Day" starring Bill Murray. It is the idea that every action that one makes; the rewards and consequences of those actions are not followed through the next day. If someone were to make a big choice, commit a crime, offend someone, make a mistake, or meet someone through out a period of a regular 24 hr. day, those rewards and consequences for all of those actions are not carried through the next day. It is all forgotten. In other words, it's like yesterday never happened. Therefore this pattern can keep on repeating for an unknown amount of time.

Last night, Larry inadvertently said an offensive racial comment that offended many people. However, the very next day Larry experenced a Groundhog Day Effect. All was forgotten and everyone he offended seemed to have forgotten the incident. Therefore, Larry is in the same position as he was before he made the comment.

St. Totteringham's Day

St. Totteringham's Day is the day celebrated by Arsenal F.C. fans when Tottenham Hotspur can no longer finish above Arsenal F.C. in the English Football League by virtue of not being able to catch their rivals, even if they win every remaining game.

Due to its very nature, St Totteringham's Day is moveable and can occur at varying times during the season based on the respective fortunes of Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal F.C..

In 2007 it is anticipated that St. Totteringham's Day will fall on Saturday 21st April when Arsenal F.C. travel to White Hart Lane; home of the Tottenham Hotspurds.

National Chicken Day

A day when we honor chicken, known on July 9th. Meat-eaters celebrate by eating chicken, and vegetarians celebrate by protesting the use of chicken as food. Farmers tend to celebrate by overfeeding their chickens.

Family Guy displays an unappropriated direction of National Chicken Day.
