Caffeinated Carbonated Beverage Day can be celebrated in so many ways. My preference would be a rainbow sherbet float with Mountain Dew. Just dont overdo it unless you enjoy bouncing off the walls. Did you know that Mountain Dew has more caffeine than many energy drinks? Celebrate World Toilet Day by cleaning the bathroom with ecologically friendly cleansers. National Ammo Day is apparently real and has corporate sponsors. Rocky & Bullwinkle Day should be a Christian Feast Day but under the strict rules of the Catholic church you can make saints out of mythological people who never existed but not cartoon characters.
