Pandemonium Day, National Nude Day, Bastille Day, more

July 14th, 2011 is Pandemonium Day, National Nude Day, Railroad Day, Bastille Day, National Grand Marnier Day, and Pick Blueberries Day.

Feeling calm? Could you use a little more chaos in your life? Excellent! Today is Pandemonium Day. Don't get carried away, though, because Pandemonium is the capital of Hell in John Milton's Paradise Lost.

The centerpiece of July's Take a Nakation Month is National Nude Day. Celebrate if you dare.

Railroad Day is a day to impress upon the United State Congress the role the railroad industry plays in "restoring America's economy, improving America's environment, and connecting America in the global marketplace."

France observes Bastille Day on July 14th, commemorating the storming of the Bastille in 1789. The day features a military parade on the Champs Elysees and fireworks at the Eiffel Tower.

National Grand Marnier Day honors a delicious orange liqueur, Grand Marnier.

This beautiful day in mid-July is the perfect time to celebrate Pick Blueberries Day.
