Air Conditioning Appreciation Day, Perfect Pac-Man Game Day, more

July 3rd, 2012, is Air Conditioning Appreciation Day, Stay out of the Sun Day, Compliment Your Mirror Day, Perfect Pac-Man Game Day, Unity Day (Zambia), Independence Day (Belarus), National Chocolate Wafer Day, and National Eat Beans Day.

Much of the United States is under a Heat Advisory now, so when better to observe Air Conditioning Appreciation Day? Thanks to everyone who works hard in highest heat, keeping our A/C units in working order!

By now we've all heard the warnings to use sunscreen with a high SPF, wear sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection, and avoid sunburn at all costs. Stay out of the Sun Day is just a friendly reminder.

July 3rd is Compliment Your Mirror Day. Gaze deeply - you should like what you see. Nobody else has the particular combination of genes, experience, and fashion sense that come together to form that face looking back at you.

Perfect Pac-Man Day commemorates the day back in 1999 when Billy Mitchell cleared all 256 levels, gobbling every dot. After 22 levels, according to those who play much better than I ever will, the ghosts don't even turn blue when Pac-Man eats a power pellet. Mitchell's final score was 3,333,360.


Zambia celebrates Unity Day on the first Tuesday in July.

Independence Day is observed on July 3rd in Belarus.

For dessert on this hot summer day, try a sweet treat that's already baked. Celebrate National Chocolate Wafer Day.

July 3rd is National Eat Beans Day. Celebrate this weekend, when many people enjoy barbecue, by having some baked beans or chili on the side. Refried beans are another yummy option.
