Coffee Daze

I read somewhere recently that July 24th is Coffee Day.  Not that I really need an excuse to drink coffee or tea.  Heh.  Every day is a caffeinated celebration around here.  But I like to know when my fellow beings are celebrating too, so I can look around and beam at my brethren globally, knowing we're all on the same page at least one day out of the year.  So, says I, cool, I should make a special icon or something.  Well, apparently the date is ... a bit murky.  To wit:

May 16th is National Coffee Day according to Marf.

(Now, according to American Food and Drink Holidays, July 24th is National Tequila Day.  I vote for this one! Combine and consolidate!  Tequila IN the coffee!!  Or a little coffee in yer ta-kill-ya, depending on your courage and your tolerance.)

And just for good measure, in case you're not dayzed and confused yet, check out these additional coffee/tea holidays from American Food and Drink Holidays:
    January - the 4th week is National Irish Coffee Week
    January 25th is National Irish Coffee Day
    January is National Hot Tea Month
    June is National Iced Tea Month
    June 10th - National Iced Tea Day
    July 26 National Coffee Milkshake Day
    Sept 6th National Coffee Ice Cream Day
    Sept 29th National Coffee Day

Oh well.  I say we celebrate National Coffee Day once a week.  Every week.  Each week we can celebrate it for a different country.  When we run out of countries, we can celebrate it for provinces, states, counties and townships and ... anything else we can think of.
