How to Create Special Days

"National" Days Definition

National Beheading Day

Date When Celebrated : This holiday is always held on September 2

WARNING: Heads will roll!

National Beheading Day is today. Hold onto your hat. And, make certain to keep your head screwed on tight.

Every once in a while, we happen upon a special day that has no apparent rhyme or reasoning. We can't imagine why someone would create this day. It defies logic. But, National Beheading Day is very prolific on the net. So, therefore, it warrants a few (very few) words.

Throughout history, beheadings have occurred. The list is long, including commoners and Kings. The most notable king to be beheaded was Charles I of England in 1645.

While this is a big day, don't go crazy and lose your head.  In addition to protecting your neck, we suggest you spend this day reading about famous beheadings.

Today's Quote: " An apple a day keeps anyone way, if you throw it hard enough." - - Stephen Colbert.

 

Origin of National Beheading Day:

We found no factual information about this special day.

We have absolutely no doubt that today IS NOT a National Day.  If Congress or the President had declared this a National day, the American public would have their heads.
