3 September

This is what every cake except one, in one store, says in Woolworths. And even in that store the 'Special Persons Day' cake was one only, amidst a great pile of Happy Fathers Day and Dad cakes like the one in the picture. All triggered by a suggestion by one loopy academic on the dumbest show on TV, Today Tonight. A suggestion nobody is going to take seriously. Take a breath. Think. Do 5 mins of research. Nobody is banning Fathers Day. Or Christmas. Or Christmas Lights. Or the Tooth Fairy. Or Easter. I noticed watching the netball today that both the South Africans and the New Zealanders sing bilingual national anthems. I think there'd be some sort of collective pants-shitting if it was suggested here.
