Sweetest Day... What?


Some things overheard at g this weekend...
"What exactly is Sweetest Day?"
"Thanks for the email, I don't know what it is either but I better be ready."
"Sweetest Day...I'm sweet everyday."

Well, I'll tell you, we didn't know either so we went to Wikipedia. Seems Sweetest Day is a truly capitalist holiday. Invented 84 years ago by candy manufacturers in Cleveland, Sweetest Day is purely a marketing scheme to sell more candy. They had celebs giving out free candy to needy children (just what they need), elderly people and such. Seems it is also a holiday that is celebrated mostly in the Midwest. Ohio has the biggest Sweetest Day sales, followed by Michigan and Illinois.

Well, that clears that up. Thank you Wikipedia. Now that we know, we will continue to remind you because that's what we are here for but we will stand fast to our decision not to advertise or publicize this ridiculous day. What about Get A New Vibrator Day or Feelin' Sexy Day or Lube Day. Now, that's more our style.
