National Ding-a-Ling Day, December 12th

And we have another Monday in December. Another Monday to remind us of all the things that we have to get done before Christmas. Plus all the normal Monday stuff. My boss called me tonight to make sure that I was going to be at work tomorrow. That's not a good sign for my work load.

Anyway, tomorrow is National Ding-a-ling Day. It has been described as the day for the weirdos, losers, Sunday drivers, etc. I will leave it to your personal preference on how you want to celebrate this day. It could be as simple as going out and ringing a bell, or hosting your own Salvation Army KettleRing Your Bell Online if you want to put a positive spin on the day.

If you want to be a bit edgy, you could read a humorous story about a man named Fred Dingaling. (Warning, although this is a mild story, it isn't for children.) Or you could just get a group together to sing and ponder on the words of Chuck Berry's song "My Ding-A-Ling-A-Ling."

If you want to make this an introspective day, there are some options available. You could pledge not to let the ding-a-ling coworkers out there drive you crazy over the next year. Or set the goal to not let road rage over come you when driving alongside ding-a-ling drivers during our commutes.

Anyway, whatever you chose to do, have a happy Ding-A-Ling Day!
