naughty or nice?

So the holiday weekend's almost here, and it's a slow news day. Resigned to a day of zero-substance blog posts, I quickly hit up TV Guide's official site to confirm the start time for tonight's episode of "So You Think You Can Dance." Stop laughing.

That's how I learned that today marks a holiday of even greater importance than July 4:

Naughty America Day!!!!!

Yes, that is a real holiday and no, its wiener roasts don't mark the same family values as the barbecues you'll be hosting tomorrow.

I still haven't quite learned the holiday's significance, aside from the fact that it involves lots of people doing -- you guessed it -- something naughty. Web sites connected with the day give suggestions like flirting with your boss or "playfully grabbing the heiney of a close friend or family member."

Which might be cool...if Naughty America Day was universally celebrated.

Anyway, have fun being naughty. And if you're abstaining, guard your heiney carefully.
