I actually didn't see the last 5 on the calendar. Maybe I didn't look close enough.

It's too hard for me to decide. It should be a day off from work that involves food and college football. I guess that's New Years. I can eat Christmas leftovers and drink the alcohol that didn't get drunk the night before

Groundhog's day, couldn't be a more meaningless celebration. I love it.

I've been to that town (but not on Feb 2) and it's nothing like the movie and those hogs have got to be the laziest creatures on Earth. They just sit in this viewing area eating all year long with no exercise. Poor guys can barely move

Oh oh oh, and Patriot's Day. Is that on the list? Granted, it is only celebrated in Maine and Massachusetts.

I used to love Christmas when I was a kid.  Now I'd say New Years day because I start drinking at like 10am then do the polar plunge at noon every year.  I see who I can get to do it with me, then we party all day.  Last year was brutal, though.  It was like 6 degrees and windy out.

Christmas, for both the religious and non-religious aspects.

St. Patrick's Day is a personal favorite, as well.

What is the "CG Calendar"?

On the front page of the CB forums there a calendar with upcoming events and birthdays and holidays.
