What to remember in September?

Do these things really migrate on their own?

In September we observe Be Kind to Writers and Editors Month. As far as we're concerned, we could stop right there.

It's also National Coupon Month -- but don't break your screen trying to clip and save this information.

Children's Good Manners Month is celebrated in September; we'd encourage that this be observed all year round. Wouldn't you?

September is Library Card Sign-Up Month. This goes well with September being Read a New Book Month and also Adult Literacy Month.

September is also Bourbon Heritage Month -- feel free to celebrate this any day on which the regularly scheduled microminiholidayettes prove inadequate.

On a serious note, September is National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, National Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and National Sickle Cell Month.

But September is also Pink Flamingo Month. Why? Our crack research staff was unable to figure that one out. Watch your lawns, though. Maybe this is the month they migrate....
