Blueberry Cheesecake Day (far less common than strawberry and sooooo much better. If I were still capable of eating cheesecake, this would be my choice*)

*Promotional consideration paid for by the blueberry Cheesecake farmers of America.

Yeah, I am just filling space because there are no other holidays except that it is...

500 Day in Indianapolis! That means the nearest open hotel room might be in Columbus and you all need to pray for Ken's sanity and well being.

Good Luck, Ken!
