    Saturday September 28 is Fish Amnesty Day
    (fourth Saturday in September each year).

    Ha, but I have to male a large pot of chowder tonight
    for a family potluck tomorrow.

    But there won’t be any salmon in it. :-)

    Well, I don’t seem to have been released from
    my low/working years yet.

    Today (September 29) is Michaelmas (St. Michael’s Day)
    and also the related National Poisoned Blackberries Day,
    which is related to a tale of the devil spitting on blackberries
    after his fall into a bramble patch after Archangel Michael
    expelled him from heaven. And of course my naked thorn
    hill climb overnight Sept. 5/6, 1991 was over thick bramble vines
    up a steep hill. Also my Ph.D. supervisor’s name is Michael,
    and he, like many in Europe, celebrates his name day. But
    I don’t think my minor deity Valakhilya is Archangel Michael,
    but it could be.

    Also it will soon be September 30, which in Canada is the
    National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known
    as Orange Shirt Day, which from Wikipedia is "a Canadian day
    of memorial to recognize the atrocities and generational impact
    caused by the Canadian Indian residential school system”.

    And it is also Blasphemy Day, which from Wikipedia “educates
    individuals and groups about blasphemy laws and defends freedom
    of expression, especially the open criticism of religion which is
    criminalized in many countries”.
